Tadeo Palomares found the perfect timing to take all the chips
Palomares took his seat at the final table of the competition as the third in chips with a stack of 2,330,000, slightly below Rodríguez, while Torres made extraordinary moves to climb positions and reach the event’s podium, despite having started in last place with only 575,000 points.
The local player managed some key eliminations that helped accumulate chips to his stack, including those of Ricardo Vera
As his last opponent, he faced the Best in Business, Sergio Barrios, who was also completely concentrated and focused on the fight for that champion trophy for his display case. Gradually depleting his stack, he managed to take all the chips when his A 5 matched an all-in that only had 1,200,000 left to make two pairs on the flop 5 J A, leaving his rival with practically no chance to recover ground. For his extraordinary performance, Palomares has written a new chapter in the history of national poker, claiming a considerable reward of MXN$816,000.
