The World Series of Poker (WSOP) Tournament of Champions crowned its winner this weekend.

Mike Sexton 'The Ambassador of Poker' beat 27 other players to win the $1 million prize money.

The event, which took place on Sunday at the Rio in Las Vegas, had a number of quality players who made it down to the last ten to compete on the final table.

Defending champion Mike 'The Mouth' Matusow, Chris 'Jesus' Ferguson, Daniel Negreanu, Gus 'The Great Dane' Hansen and Ireland's Andy Black all took part in the final table.

After beating Negreanu in heads-up play, Sexton said ""maybe I proved that the old school guys still got some game".

'The Ambassador of Poker' plans to donate half his winnings to charity.
