The Ultimate $1,000 January package to ChetanFR

ChetanFR outsmarted everyone after a suspenseful night of 2h47

There was one last package up for grabs tonight and it was a suspenseful night till the end.

1h ¾ into the tournament ChetanFR became a steady chip leader and stayed with a ~25,000 stack for more than ½ h with only three players seated for most of the time. Then came a magic moment when the stacks were levelled with the 3 survivors taking turns to enjoy the lead for a couple of hands.

Had ChetanFR run out of stamina?

In the end it appears it was only a transient strain and ChetanFR made a comeback to run over Fanderam first then BILOU. Neither of them was able to break and cash in on ChetanFR’s bad patch.

Once heads-up opposite ChetanFR BILOU played very shyly and literally watched his stack go down the drain. Actually BILOU won hand #133 with a Diamond Flush, Jack high, reaped 17,000 chips then could not live up to it. Can you figure this: in the final sprint ChetanFR won ten hands in a row! He won hand #134 with a pair of Jacks, then played aggressive and BILOU never fought back, folding like a predictable wimp for the next 8 hands and blinds at 500-1,000. It’s true that ChetanFR was back in charge, his hands full of Aces and, eventually a pair of seven (hand #143) that was more than sufficient to burry a washed out BILOU who went all-in with only 4-2 in hand...

 

Complete final standing...
