Some decent play at the Foxwoods WPT final table

I have to say, I was a little skeptic when I turned on the WPT tonight for the final table at Foxwoods.  There were no pros!  At least none that anybody recognized.  I thought, "great... a bunch of amateurs who got lucky by playing hands they probably shouldn't."

Well surpsise me!  Congratulations to Victor Ramdin for finally winning a WPT event on his 30th try!  He takes home $1.3 million for his efforts.  Alex Jacob (a 21 yr. old Senior at Yale) came in 2nd and won a paltry $655k (!!).  Alex was completely stoic through the entire final table.  Victor mentinoed he couldn't pick up any tells on Alex, and after reading "Read 'em and Reap" I was especially impressed with Alex's control on his limbic responses.  Way to go!

I'm curious to see what happens to these guys.  Is $655k enough to cause Alex to go pro?  Can Victor repeat his performance and make another final table in a major event?  Only time will tell!
