LAPT Punta del Este

Its been AGES since my last blog, I know but I'll try and make up for that over this weekend.

In the meantime, congratulations to Assassinato (AKA Alex Fitzgerald, pictured below) for cashing in the LAPT event in Punta del Este. I'm a fan of Alex from his blog and have followed his progress for a little while now. He's struggled to do well in live events and I'm sure he'll be disappointed to not have gone further but it was a solid showing nonetheless in a field of 327. Hopefully this performance will give him the confidence to even better in his upcoming live tournaments.

Click on the title below to see a quick interview with Alex (before he busted) and read about the rest of the LAPT event.

Last update 5:01pm

5:01pm--Alex Fitzgerald and Edson Esquio eliminated back to back ($7,220)

Lisandro Gallo may get us to a final table before dinner. He knocked out both Alex Fitzgerald and Edson Esquio back to back in the lat hands before the break.

Alex Fitzgerald was short and in need of a double-up. Folded to him in the cut-off, he got it in with Jd-8d. Unfortunately for him, Lisandro Gallo woke up with big slick. The board blanked out and Fitzgerald exited in 32nd place.
