Don McCormick had a great day yesterday, capturing the $235 NLH Black Chip Bounty title for $5,600 plus $1,900 in bounties! He already has four cashes this Run It Up Reno VIII, so the win was certainly a great way to celebrate. McCormick topped a field of 236 entries for a prize pool of $22,184.
The newly-crowned champion defeated Eric ‘TABLECAPTAINN’ Wemlinger in a tough heads-up battle, with Wemlinger eventually taking home $3,220 for his runner-up finish. Other familiar faces to make it deep in this event included the likes of Sherman Mah (3rd – $2,204), Jason Daniele (7th – $885), Michael Trivett (13th – $380), Jamie Kerstetter (20th – $300) and Tyson Apostol (23rd – $300).
