Another day and another Summer Champs tournament. The first No Limit Holdem game saw with it more than a few welcome surprises. First off, some of our Summer Champs regulars while still turning out to test their skills were lost in a sea of new faces as a staggering 460 registered. This consequently pushed the guaranteed $500 prize pool, through the roof, to $2, 300 to be shared amongst the top place getters.
Right from the start saw the game begin to take its toll, with many players dropping like flies. After only 4 hands, 10 players had been ousted, the field steadily growing smaller. A few hours of strenuous game play later saw playarus21 amass a substantial chip lead and trump sidslick and Jwhit8ker in only a few hands to claim victory and a $575 cash win. Once again congratulations to playarus21 and to all players who seated well, don’t forget to check you position on the leader board.
This weekend sees some higher $2500 guaranteed prize pools which are likely to be pushed high if the attendance levels keep up. See you all at tomorrow’s $1000 5 Card Draw Championship
