Defending Champ Reichard Enters the Fray
Level 8
: 400/800, 800 ante
The field here at the HPT Season XV $2,500 Championship Event just got a little tougher, as defending champ Josh Reichard just took his seat.
Reichard topped a field of 434 runners at Ameristar East Chicago and walked away with $221,294 after defeating Bobby Noel in heads-up play in last year's Championship Event. Reichard managed to follow up his success in Season XIV with another victory this season, taking down September's HPT Ameristar East Chicago Main Event for another $186,812 in prize money after besting a field of 579 entries.
Reichard will be looking to not only defend his title, but add a third HPT trophy to an already packed wall of accolades for the young Wisconsin pro, and we'll be following him all weekend long.
