Brady Building

Level 12 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
James Brady
James Brady

James Brady took 1st place and more than $23,000 in the 2018 Spring Poker Open $400 Monster Stack 40/40 event claiming his first Borgata Hotel replica trophy. That’s not his best live cash, however.

During the 2017 Borgata Poker Open, James made the final table of the Kick-Off event, which saw 3,570 entrants. His 7th place finish in that event was good for $53,410 and that remains his best live cash.

He's off to a strong start in Flight A of the Deepest Stack as they approach the close of registration.

Braga Spikes the Turn, Stays Alive

Lucas Braga found all of his chips go into the middle, totaling 18,300 and one player called, putting him at risk as they turned over their hands.

Lucas Braga: {a-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
Opponent: {k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

The flop came down {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and Braga fell behind as his opponent hit a cowboy. An {a-Hearts} turn card retook the lead for Braga and the {j-Spades} river secured the pot, shipping a full double up to Braga.

Kachittavong Still Running Hot

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Soukha Kachittavong
Soukha Kachittavong

Four players on Table 4 were looking at a board of {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. Seat 1 bet 1,500, Seat 2 called, then Soukha Kachittavong (cutoff) made it 6,500 to go.

Then one by one his opponents released their hands and surrendered the pot. As he pulled the chips, he made the courtesy show of his {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for two pair.

Kachittavong is still on fire from his win in Event #3: $600 Deepstack NLH, the $500K GTD Kick-Off event, for which he earned $87,443 in a seven-way adjusted payout deal.
