World Series of Poker
Keikoan has 12 cashes at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) including coming in 63rd place at the 2007 WSOP Main Event. On June 6, 2008 Keikoan won his first World Series of Poker bracelet after defeating Shannon Shorr at the $2000 No Limit Holdem event.
Two years later, on June 18, 2010 at the 2010 World Series of Poker in the $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship event, Keikoan began heads-ups play with Daniel Idema who had almost a 3-1 chip advantage against him. He battled back to take the chip lead several times during the more than four-hour heads-up match and at one time he was severely crippled down to only 300,000 in chips while the blinds were at 120,000/240,000. At that point Keikoan jokingly told his supporters in the audience that he was going to make “(the) greatest comeback in history right here.” and indeed did come back to win his second bracelet and earning himself $425,969.[1]
