Always known as a pretty aggressive player, Ben is a tough player to read. On Thursday, October 16, he was so tough that he got up big early, took a dip and then surged to victory as the inaugural Camel Cup Poker Tour satellite champion.
The 10-man tournament yielded Ben the standard 5 points plus a nice chunk of change (100) for his efforts. He staved off a strong performance by Chris who lost two tough hands to Ben down the stretch to drop into second place.
The cockroach of the night was MattG who was down to 1400 chips when heading to the final table of 8 but managed a nice comeback to get into contention in the final three before going all in and finishing third late on. Tough beat of the night goes to Andy who felt good about two pair on the board with his ace kicker. Little did he know he was going up against quad 9s from MattG.
The full standings are below. A big thanks to Adam for hosting the kickoff event and for his efforts in organizing the tour.
Next event will be at Steve's on Thursday, Nov. 20. Check the standings on the right for the points and check the history page for the all-time money leaders table.
