Monday June 25, 2012 : 2012 WSOP event 40 – $2,500 buy-in  Limit Hold'em Six Handed

Massachusetts poker pro Ronnie Bardah won his first World Series of Poker bracelet, and his biggest career cash yet, in event 40 – $2,500 buy-in  Limit Hold'em Six Handed after surviving a field of 302 entrants and a hardass final table.
 
The level 26 heads up saw Bardah pitted against 26-year-old Californian internet and live tournament pro Marco Johnson – famous for his role in exposing the Absolute Poker scandal – with Bardah holding a more than 3 to 1 advantage which Johnson was unable to overcome.

Vincent Gironda 3rd Place ($73,040)
Brent Wheeler $48,828
Sorel Mizzi $33,541
