Congratulations to Chile's very own Oscar Alache, the winner of the Latin American Poker Tour (LAPT) Chile Main Event. It only took six-and-a-half hours of play on the final table until Alache was the last man standing of eight finalists.
In total, he topped a felt of 410 entries over five days to lay hands on the $131,162 (of the tournament's $904,460 prize pool) first-place prize.
This was his second LAPT title in six months, with his first win occurring in October 2014 in the LAPT Peru Grand Final. He's now one of three players in the tour's history to win multiple titles. The other two players are Argentines Nacho Barbero and Fabian Ortiz.
