Tuesday, August 24th: Gil Nachum Tries To Run Away With "Final Table Finish," As We Come Down The Homestretch Of Leaderboard Race!!!

ICYMI: The highly-touted aspect of Monday's $250 No Limit Hold'em "Final Table Finish" ($10,000 GTD), is the incredibly healthy payouts.  With forty percent of the prize pool scheduled to go to the tournament's winner, you'd be hard pressed to find a better return in a recurring tournament (not just in South Florida, but the country).  

Let's take last night's tournament for instance, which ended up with a total of (144) entries, and an official prize pool of $29,952.  With those numbers, the eventual winner was scheduled to take home close to $12,000!!!  Those payouts also make it easier for final table chops, as numbers seem to become more agreeable when they are larger.  Last night's tournament did end in a deal, with Gil Nachum receiving a lion's share of the money.  He didn't cross the five-figure mark, but his overwhelming chip lead did earn him $8,000 (and 38.46 leaderboard points).  Official results from the tournament are listed below:

1. Gil Nachum (Dania Beach, FL) $8,000
2. Nigel Murray (Miramar, FL) $4,518
3. Jonathan Lasko (Hollywood, FL) $3,974
4. Richard Blume Jr. (Delray Beach, FL) $3,958
5. Dennis Gilman (Pompano Beach, FL) $3,245
6. Harry man Baquero (Coral Springs, FL) $2,662
7. Calixto Rodriguez (Pembroke Pines, FL) $1,797

9. Bruce Warren (Wilton Manors, FL) $899
