A chip and a chair

Pot Limit Omaha Champion Dvornikov Svayatoslav

The poker adage – “a chip and a chair,” was true for Russia’s Dvornikov Svayatoslav after he took down the 41-entry US$ 220 Pot Limit Omaha tournament.

Dvornikov Svayatoslav (L) and Mike Ross (R) heads up at the US$220 Pot Limit Omaha side event

Actually Svayatoslav had three chips left during heads up of the eighth side event of the APT Asian Series Cambodia 2014. It was a steep uphill battle for the Russian who had less than one percent of the total chips in play while the rest were infront of Poker@Queenco’s Mike Ross. Through a long series of double ups, the tables turned until Svayatoslav had all the chips and PLO championship.

In addition to Day 2 of the Main Event, the poker festivities at the Queenco Casino & Hotel continue Monday with the US$ 330 No Limit Hold’em and US$ 110 WeLoveSport.com Deep Stack Turbo at 3:00pm and 7:00pm respectively. Check out the complete APT Asian Series Cambodia 2014 Event Schedule
