Christopher Mo, Event 6 champion

The last week of the WPT Tampa rolled around and introduced another multi-flight tournament. Event 6 was a $600 buy-in Deep Stack tournament that drew 398 entries and Christopher Mo stormed ahead of everyone late to take the title along with $36,600.

The 398 entries combined to create a prize pool worth $209,850 and each flight played down to the money before bagging up. That meant all 51 players returning for Day 2 and the pace was quick when cards went back in the air without a money bubble.

The lead changed hands several times but Mo took command at the final table and built his stack while others were going out. Even while sending a few double up across the table, he maintained a big lead until only three players remained.

Those three quickly agreed to a deal to divide up the remaining prize pool with Mo taking top honors, the trophy, and $36,600. Starting Day 2 chip leader Fred Paradis earned $31,496 for second place while former Tampa champ Manny Minaya took home $24,244 for third.

Congrats to Christopher and good luck in the Championship!
