David "Chino" Rheems Wins Doyle Brunson World Poker Classic
David Rheems rode his aggressive style of play to victory in the 2008 WPT's Doyle Brunson Five Diamond World Poker Classic at the Bellagio. The win gave Rheems an early Christmas present in the form of $1,538,730 in cash. He also received a $25K buy-in in the WPT Spring Championship event.
Justin Young came up one short and had to settle for second place and $936,760. Evan McNiff finished in third place for a $540,440 payday. As we predicted in yesterday's post, this day belonged to David "Chino" Rheems.
