Hakeem Mashal Wins Event #20 of the Ante Up World Championship
While the Ante Up World Championship $1,650 Main Event is the premier tournament on the schedule, it’s far from the only one. In fact, the tour has been at Thunder Valley since early July hosting a slew of side events.
The PokerNews Live Reporting Team wasn’t on hand to capture the action from those events, but we still wanted to offer fans a brief look at all those who’ve captured titles during the Ante Up World Championship.
For example, Event #20: $180 Win Place Show Takes the Dough Pot-Limit Omaha had 48 entrants create a $7,000 prize pool (including bounties).
After Howard Andrew bowed out in fourth place for $200, the final three struck a deal that saw Hakeen Mashal finish as champ for $774, while Alex Boldt and Lei Chi finished in second and third respectively for $773 each.
