Tournament Success for the Tournament Director

One name that's well-known in poker circles -- but escaped our attention the first two days -- is that of Tab Duchateau. Duchateau is the tournament director at the Borgata Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, NJ. Under Duchateau's stewardship, the Borgata has become an industry leader and one of the pre-eminent destinations for big buy-in poker tournaments in the northeastern United States.

Duchateau does not often play tournaments himself (this morning on an internet forum he posted that he has new respect for people who do so for a living) but he's poised for a deep run here at Mohegan. He recently wound up all in pre-flop against Frank Vizza. Vizza had red tens but Duchateau had black aces. His aces were best on a board of {Q-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {k-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {6-Clubs}, doubling his stack to about 210,000 chips.
