The Delaware Poker Championship IV, which began Aug. 30 and was held at Dover Downs, garnered 258 participants and a total prize pool guarantee of $129,000.
The final table played for over an hour with the winner being announced at 1:45 a.m., Sunday, Aug. 31.
Josh Chavis of Norfolk, Va., took home the championship trophy and $15,000 in cash after the final two at the table chopped the pot.
“I was getting frustrated when the calls weren’t going my way,” said Chavis, a 24-year-old construction worker. “Then I got more aggressive, which ultimately got me to the win.”
Chavis, a newlywed, said he plans to take his wife out on a really great date with his winnings.
