Event 2 wasn’t the only tournament in the Poker Room on Sunday, we also had a one-day tournament for those who missed out on the big day or dropped out early. The $200 buy-in tournament drew 203 entries and Ryan Hogan outlasted them all to take home $6,500 along with the guitar trophy.

Event 3 continued the great trend we’ve had this series and the small buy-in tournament put together a big $32,480 prize pool with 21 players taking home a piece.

Roberto Molina was notable at the final table where he picked up his second cash of the day. He was the Day 2 returning chip leader for Event 2 but a bad run had him going out 56th of 811 for $910. Molina took his payout, jumped in Event 3, and finished seventh for another $1,169.

After Philip Robey’s elimination in fourth place, the three remaining players came to an agreement to chop up the remaining prize pool. As the chip leader, Hogan was awarded the title, the cash, and a nice guitar to hang on his wall.

Congrats to Ryan and more thanks to our players for another great day.

1st: Ryan Hogan – $6,500 + Guitar Trophy *
