DoggyP75, a 32-year-old consultant to the forestry industry, defeated Scotsman Marky_Crash in the heads-up of the tournament created in co-operation between fun.PokerRoom.com and the FIA WTCC.

DoggyP75 held a 5:1 chip lead over Marky_Crash and although his opponent reduced the deficit, the Finn sealed the victory when he pushed with a pre-flop all-in.

The pocket fours from Doggy then held up versus King, Jack from Marky who failed to get any help from the board.
