Sunday, May 13th: Richard/Richard Exacta In $360 NLH ($30,000 GTD), As We Wish A Happy Mother's Day

ICYMI: The highlighting tournament of the week got underway at 1:00pm yesterday afternoon, as players began arriving for the $360 No Limit Hold'em ($30,000 GTD). With registration open through Level 12, players had an ample amount of time to join the action, as the field officially closed (119) entries.  Once the payouts were posted, players learned that (15) spots were scheduled to reach the money, with all eyes on the $10,601 first place prize.  After the money bubble burst, it was a stream go Isle Poker notables heading to the podium to collect winnings, including the likes of David Poces (15th place), Zoltan Czinkota (14th place), Scott Bailey (12th place), and Pasquale Caiazza (11th place).  The "notables" theme continued at the final table, with action playing down to the point that two players remained.  At that point, Richard Kirsch and Richard Leger would agree to an even chop, with Kirsch declared the event's "winner."  Official results from the tournament are listed below:
