Poker Player Chops His First Ever Tournament for $5,328
The $400 NLH Single Re-Entry event wrapped up just with a deal just as the same thing was happening in the $500 Seniors.
The final three players reached an ICM deal that saw Roy Kim winning the trophy and the biggest payout of $7,987. But the real story was Oscar Franquez finishing second for $5,328 in what he told PokerNews was his first-ever tournament.
Bob Crawford also got in on the three-handed deal to win $4,595, while the final table also included Joseph Mirsabile (4th - $2,300), Rammy Barbari (5th -$1,753) and Matthew Scalf (6th - $1,403).
