César Trejo defines himself as a recreational player, but focused on doing things right
César Trejo himself has maintained that he participates recreationally in poker tournaments in his community due to the great passion he feels for competition in this field. His focus, for now, is not on poker as he has other priorities. However, he does not rule out that this situation might change soon when he retires from his job.

Regarding his brilliant performance in this event, his victory, achieved technically due to having the most chips in play on his side at the time of the final agreement, was no coincidence: solid play with few weaknesses made it difficult for his rivals to find cracks to infiltrate and take a piece of his stack.
Luisa Morfin was the first to be eliminated at the final table, claiming 9th place with a payout of MXN$13,200, followed unexpectedly by Saba Peralta
In the middle part of this stage, two new figures appeared: Carlos Zamarrón performed very well throughout each phase of the tournament and unfortunately his exit came in a forced-bet war where he made the mistake of facing his Q 4 on a 3 4 5 flop, giving him a small pair, but with many combos that, if not beaten, had very high equity projects to materialize. His 6th place earned him a payout of MXN$31,700. He was followed by Víctor Gazar
