Greg Radosh joins a small group of players as two-time @HPTPoker champions, defeating Mike Esquivel heads up for the @AmeristarSC title, earning $99,612.
Radosh - who was a dealer for the St. Charles final table in 2015 - won this event in 2016 and adds today's victory for his second Main Event win.
Esquivel began the final table as chipleader, having twice the number of chips as 2nd place. He briefly gave up the chiplead early to Neil Patel, then held the lead until Radosh eliminated Patel in 3rd place.
Radosh and Esquivel began heads-up play separated by just 6BB, but Radosh quickly opened up a 2.5-1 chiplead.
Others who cashed in the Main event included Natchman Berlin (11th), David Gutfreund (6th) and Robert Castoire (27th).
Among those who came out for the St. Charles Main Event but did not cash included Ari Engel, Jason Brin, Ravi Raghavan, Josh Turner, Nick Pupillo, Craig Casino, Roger Campbell, Shawn Robert, Bruce Hugon, Shawn McCracken, Paul Belken, Michael Hahn and Ed Sebesta.
