A series of preliminary events have been taking place in the Horseshoe Council Bluffs poker room leading up to this weekend's $575 Main Event, and PokerNews is sharing brief recaps of the week's action.
202 entrants ponied up the $200 entry fee for Event #5: $200 Two Green Chip Bounty Ring Event, in hopes of snagging some $50 bounties on their way to victory. Every player in the tournament had a $50 bounty on their heads, making the action fast and frenzied as players vied for those bounties.
Only 21 players would manage to walk away with a piece of the main prize pool, and after a three-way deal it was Adolfo Chavez who would be crowned the king of the bounties, managing to earn a $6,041 payday on top of the bounties he accrued along the way, the coveted All-Stars Ring, and 25 Casino Championship points.
