Here at carbonpoker.com, Badugi would undoubtedly be one of our less popular game types. So to see over 250 players enter into today’s Badugi championship tournament was certainly a welcome surprise and made for a neat $1260 prize pool.
The third event in the Summer Champs once again saw regular avatars and screen names filling out the tables for some intense Badugi. Both previous tournaments’ second place getters (satanicmonkey and jerry13) placed close to the 20th mark and this will certainly help cement their position on the summer champs leader board.
The final 2 tables bore witness to some rigorous game play with everyone in the final six taking turns as chip leader, however the game wore on until some big hands saw six drop to three in quick succession before lestage35 quickly did away with vedel888 and bobbyolson respectively to claim victory.
Tomorrow will see a No Limit Holdem Turbo challenge, followed by a 5 Card Draw championship, before the weekend brings some bigger $2500 guaranteed prize pools with a 6 Handed No Limit Holdem tournament on Friday and a Pot Limit Omaha championship on Saturday.
Congratulations lestage35 and to all players who placed and played well today, and ill see you all again tomorrow…
