William Reynolds Wins PokerStars Caribbean Adventure High Roller Event

The $25k PokerStars Caribbean Adventure High Roller tournament was an exciting event in the Bahamas. Eight four players posted the large buy-in to compete for four days to try and win the $500,000+ first place prize. In the end it would be William Reynolds who took down the title.

Several top poker pros participated in the event which included Greg Raymer, Mike Matusow and Daniel Negreanu. But the most recognizable poker pros would not make it to the final table. Reynolds would be a notable player but he is not as well known as other poker pros.

Reynolds has been very successful over the past few months with a 4th place finish at the 2009 EPT San Remo. Reynolds is a regular player at PokerStars and he is a frequent winner during tournaments at the top poker room.

Reynolds commented on his recent win at the PCA by stating: “It was the most roller coaster of a ride I’ve ever been on. I was all in so many times at the end of Day 3 it looked I was going to be the final table bubble. I ended up doubling up four times in a row and making it to the final table, chipping up, winning some key hands and taking it down.”

Reynolds would have to face Will Molson in heads up play before he could claim the title. In the end the two would compete for about three hours before the final hand would take place. Reynolds had earned the chip lead when he went all in A-10 against Molson’s K-9. The flop was 5-7-9 and J-A was no help on the turn and river for Molson so Reynold’s earned the first place win.
