Event #14 -- No Limit Hold'Em

Austin Schaal The buyin for this event was $340, resulting in a pool of $54,837 that went to the top 21. The champion Austin Schaal made a number of five figure cashes playing online, but this was his first time playing at a live final table. Once the field busted out to the last nine, here is how he did it.

Having blinds at $3,000/$6,000 and ante of $1,000, first to go in 9th was Michael Hamner. Hamner lost out to the flush made by another player. Jonathan Frey lost to the straight made by Brandon Garner. David Stafford was railbound in 7th after meeting the Queen kicker of Garner. Garner busted in 6th place after running his pocket nines into Schaal's pocket aces. Soon after Anthony Sansone was headed to the cashier's cage for a 5th place payout courtesy of the 10 kicker of Schaal. Daniel Pancotto was the 4th place finisher. He earned $4,475. Schaal then turned his attention to Steven Trimmer and went to the middle with pocket 10's that held to the river, sending Trimmer to the sidelines in 3rd place.

Schaal had more than a 3-1 chip lead heads up against Gary Shenberg. A few hands later, Schaal moved all-in on after the turn on a 10s-Js-8c-9s board. Shenberg knew what was coming, but with a short stack, called with 10-8. Schaal quickly turned over 8h-Qs for the straight. A blank on the river earned Schaal $14,425 for first place and the Circuit Event ring.

  1. Austin Schaal -- $14,425
  2. Gary Shenberg -- $8,856
  3. Steven Trimmer -- $6,268
  4. Daniel Pancotto -- $4,475
  5. Anthony Sansone -- $3,581
  6. Brandon Garner -- $2,687
  7. David Stafford -- $1,793
  8. Jonathan Frey -- $1,453
  9. Michael Hamner -- $1,234
