Event 4 Winner – Jermaine Phang

Recap

“This is my biggest tournament win by far,” said an obviously pleased Jermaine Phang moments after taking down Event 4 of the 2014 Lucky Hearts Poker Open at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek.  Not only was the $17,000 pay day his biggest cash ever, but it tripled his career earnings of $5,324.  “I love playing at the Creek,” said the 34 year old electrical engineer from Pompano Beach.  “I mainly play tournaments here and I’m going to play in the WPT Main Event.”

A total of 314 players turned out over the course of two starting flights and by the time play wrapped up early Tuesday morning there were a total of 68 players coming back to vie for the 36 in the money spots.  Wendy Freedman from Las Vegas led the start of Day 2 with 276,900 in chips.  It would take just over three hours of play to get into the money and it would be well known local poker professional Darryl Fish who would burst the bubble when his Ace-King won a race against Tim Miles.

Recap

A little more than one year ago to the day,  Robert Wachtel (Atlanta, GA) defended his title in the PLO 8 or Better event of the Lucky Hearts Poker Open. Wachtel and Joe Treffiletti (Fort Lauderdale) strike a deal to end the tournament before playing any hands heads up.

Wachtel had a commanding chip lead and gave up $402 from the $4,014 top prize to end the tournament.

“I can’t believe I defended my title,” said Wachtel who was part of an 8-way chop last year when the tournament was held at Hard Rock, Hollwood. “To win two years in a row takes a lot.”

And it’s been a couple of good weeks for Treffiletti who picked up his second recorded career cash. He was part of a chop in the same event in December during the Fun in the Sun Open at Hollywood.

Wachtel and Treffiletti struck the deal after Wachtel knocked out Jordan Chizik (Fort Lauderdale), in third place after Chizik had been the chip leader most of the day.

“Big hand for the chip lead,” said Chizik who went out when he flopped three pairs, but is run down by Wachtel who turned a higher two pairs for most of the chips in play.

Fourth place went to Michael Moed (Miami Beach), who has 5 career Omaha H/L titles to his credit, including two at Hollywood in 2013. Meanwhile Joey Prosper (Miami) finished 5th for his 10th final table in the last year, including one in the Rock N Roll Poker Open at Hollywood in November.
