Monday, April 30th: Lindemulder Tops A Tough Final Table, Ships The $1,100 NLH Single-Ante, Two Days Away From The Next Multi

ICYMI: There are some tournament's that introduce new names to the poker world, and others that host what seems like all of the notable players in the area.  Yesterday's $1,100 No Limit Hold'em Single-Ante ($200,000 GTD) saw (48) players return for Day 2, a majority of which were very accomplished tournament players.  The field would reach the money just two hours into play, and once the results started coming in, it was like a "who's who" of Florida tournament poker.  Players to cash in the event (short of the final table), included Neil Blumenfield (31st place), Matthew Vetstein (27th place), Matthew Smith (22nd place), Daryl Jace (16th place), and Jose Reyes (11th place).  The final table of the event ended up being one of the toughest we've seen in recent memory, with Ben Lindemulder (Pompano Beach, FL) taking down the title.  Om his way to the win, Lindemulder bested names like Edward McNamara, Scott Levitt, Phillip Hui, Erik Christensen, and Jose Parra.  The official results from the tournament are listed below:
  1. Ben Lindemulder (Pompano Beach, FL) $56,090
