Multi-Way Chop Ends Event #6: $250 No-Limit Hold'em Turbo
Players who couldn't get enough in the first two events of the day on Jan. 25 could get one last crack at the Lone Star Poker Series with Event #6: $250 No-Limit Hold'em Turbo.
This one drew 33 entries for a prize pool of $6,600, getting past the $5,000 guarantee.
The final five players would be paid, but after Genc Govori busted in fifth, it appears the last four struck a deal that saw everyone take home between $1,334 and $1,694. They'd play out for the official winner and Doug Ngo of Houston emerged as champ. Whether he collected any additional prize money wasn't reported, but he's the official winner over Brian Murphy, Darren Hicks and Gee Way Lee.
