A Look Back at the Parx Big Stax XXXII 300 Event

Level 21 : 8,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Earlier this month, the Parx Big Stax XXXII hosted the Parx Big Stax 300, a tournament that drew 2,257 total entries for a $643,245 prize pool.

It looked like it was Dan Sweeney's to win since the final levels of Day 2, and indeed he did close out for a $95,744 top prize after striking a three-way deal.

Sweeney started the final day with the chip lead and stayed atop the leaderboard for nearly the entire day en route to taking home the championship at Parx Casino in Bensalem, Pennsylvania. The final three players - Sweeney, Anthony Chin and Christopher Laieta - came to terms on a three-way deal that ended with Sweeney being declared the winner.

"I tried to not go too crazy, not to be too much of a chip bully when I had an advantage."

Sweeney took home $95,744 per the deal, with both Chin and Larieta earning $65,000. Sweeney had 52 million of the 67 million chips in play when the table went three-handed.

"I felt like I was going to win," Sweeney said. "I felt like I was at the top of my game."

"I tried to not go too crazy, not to be too much of a chip bully when I had an advantage. I picked my spots correctly, I think. I made a few mistakes, but that's ok."

For Sweeney, who grew up in the Bensalem area, the Big Stax 300 victory was a hometown win.
