Event 1 (Day 1C): Hard Luck Winner?

Level 14 (Blinds 1,000/2,000/300)
Total Day 1C Entries: 252
Day 1C Players Remaining: 64

Venkata Emani (Hanover, MD)
Continuing the trend of players from the Live! Poker Classic $3,500 Main Event, Venkata Emani (Hanover, MD) just eliminated John Robinson to chip up to 80,000.  Emani could be considered the hard luck "winner," if there is such thing.  Although Emani reached the final table, he would eventually end up being eliminated in 9th place ($7,987).

After Venkata was eliminated, the remaining players began discussing numbers and eventually came up with a chop.  The player who walked away with the least amount in the chop still took home over $30,000.
