Dating back to last year, Steve Foutty (pictured) has reached four Harveys Lake Tahoe Circuit final tables.
Stateline, Nev. (November 2, 2015) -- Last night Event #4 - $365 No-Limit Hold'em was able to work itself all the way down
the to the final table. Julian Galvan was able to bag a sizable chip
lead. He bagged 375,000 with the next closest player having 209,000.
This marks Galvan's first WSOP final table, but he has had a few
close calls in the past. He has finished 10th, 13th, and 14th in the
past year in WSOP events. His 10th place was this summer in Las Vegas.
He finished 10th place in the $1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event for $12,835.
Steve Foutty is making his second final table of the series and
continues to stay hot at Harveys Lake Tahoe. The 2014 Harveys Lake Tahoe
Casino Champion becomes the first player of the series to reach two
final tables. He finished in 8th place in the opening event. With a
second place finish or better today, Foutty can take the lead in the
Casino Championship and set himself up in a good position to defend his
title.
Here is a look at the final table seating assignments and chip counts:
Seat 1: Steve Foutty - 160,000
Seat 2: Bill Haynes - 115,000
Seat 3: Jeremy Priest - 181,000
