Ron Robinson Overcomes 3:1 Chip Deficit to Win Event #6: $400 NLH 8-Handed One-Day

The World Series of Poker Circuit Choctaw Durant $1,700 Main Event is just one of a dozen gold ring events at the stop.

For more than a week, a slew of side events has been playing out including Event #6: $400 NLH 8-Handed One-Day, a tournament that drew 166 runners and offered up a $54,780 prize pool.

Ron Robinson, an insurance data analyst from Dallas, ended up the winner to claim the title and accompanying $14,190 first-place prize. In order to claim his first gold ring, Robinson had to overcome some challenges.

During three-handed play he was just looking to ladder up, which he did when Eric Ritter was bounced in third place. That allowed Robinson to make it to heads-up play against two-time ring winner Burt Bogard, albeit at a 3:1 chip disadvantage.

“I’m really surprised, the main reason is when I got to the pay jump when the gentleman got out and I was heads-up that I was at such disadvantage,” Robinson told WSOP officials. “I was just kind of grinding-it out. I believe as the night progressed he got tired. I think it was the moment that when I colored-up and got those blue 25,000 chips that he started to realize that I was coming back. Even though he had a 3-1 chip lead on me, I think he got a little disappointed about that. I realized when the chips were going down and when I started to go all-in at the end, it really started to hit home with him that, “oh, wow I could lose this thing. If I just got the pay jump, I would’ve been happy.”

Richard Fires Three Barrels

Level 4 : 100/200, 200 ante

Short Checked to Richards who continued with 1,600 and Short called.
