Sure, there’s Tahoe Andrew and Layne Flack, but our own Back-To-Back is John ‘johnnyhaha’ Riesterer – winner of our VIP Member Tournament of CHampions for the second year in a row.
Our VIP members play in freerolls multiple times each week, earning points to qualify for our season-ending Tournament of Champions. This year there were 22 automatic qualifiers for the Tournament of Champions. Riesterer defeated Michael ‘CAGrinder’ Fousse is a very exciting heads-up match that saw Fousse twice river two pair, only to see that river card give Riesterer a flush.
For his win, Riesterer earns a custom built poker table from our sponsor Off Tilt Poker Tables.
