In the early hours of Monday morning at the Poker NV Challenge at the Peppermill Resort Spa Casino in Reno, NV, UFC fighter Martin Kampmann emerged as the Main Event winner, taking home $52,740 and the title.
Kampmann put to great use the tips from his coach, Ultimate Poker pro Jason Somerville, to work his way to the title. He picked up a huge run of cards early at the final table, then used his big stack to keep constant pressure on the players at the table as he ran away with the win.
