Joe Brindle Wins RIU Reno VIII Triple Stud Title
Level 2
: 100/200, 200 ante
On Friday night, the $125 buy-in, $5,000 guaranteed 6-Max Triple Stud saw 66 entries create a $6,402 prize pool, which was paid out among the top 11 players.
Among those to cash but fall short of the final table were Kyle Anderson (7th - $320), Jimmy Cappucci (8th - $320), Andy Camou (9th - $250), Petr Salzman (10th - $200), and David Scarpetta (11th - $200).
In the end, Joe Brindle bested Nam Truong in heads-up play to win the title and a $1,627 top prize. Brindle followed in the footsteps of his friend and traveling mate Adam Owen, who won a RIU Reno trophy of his own earlier in the series by capturing the $235 H.O.R.S.E. title.
