Lam Huynh Wins RGPS $180 Deepstack Event
While PokerNews is on-site offering live updates from the $575 Main Event, we wanted to take a moment to tell you about some other action that took place at the RGPS Horseshoe Bossier City.
On Wednesday, 352 entries competed in two flights in the $180 Deepstack Event and were whittled down to 52 players. Those players returned Thursday at noon to compete for their share of a guarantee shattering prizepool of $49,280. Thirty-six of those players would reach the money with a top prize of $11,316 and a coveted Championship Ring.
Among those to cash but fall short of the final table were Brizelda Blagg (11th - $862), Brian Maxwell (14th - $710), Stephen Hart (16th - $586), and Lee Lackey (19th - $498).
After a ten-way final table ICM chop, it was Lam Huynh holding the cards, ring, and title.
