Sun Jun 28 2009Winner of Event 48 - $1,500 Pot Limit Omaha Hi/Lo 8-or-better
762 Omaha enthusiasts took to the felt including the likes of Allen Cunningham, Roland De Wolfe, Kathy Liebert and Phil Hellmuth. However when play resumed today, there would be only two big names remaining with Brandon Cantu and Lee Watkinson headlining the final table. Starting heads-up play with a near five-to-two disadvantage, Cantu would let that slip out to a six-to-one disadvantage before mounting a comeback to remember. The win marked Cantu's second bracelet win, netting him almost $230,000 in prize money. Congratulations, Brandon!
