The Main Event of Bayou Poker Challenge attracted 80 players this year. Not a lot of players in other words, but since the buy-in was $3000+$120 it created a total prize pool of $221,709.

Posted by AA-Daelt-AA nice price for the winner considering the main event entry to WSOP 2010.
entry to main event is 10k and don't think its much for them( considering its easier for him to get a sponsorship too), he surely would have wanted a bigger prizepool

Sorry but when i look at this guy photo and see his nickname "Chainsaw" i just can't stop laughing .
LaBaiz 12/22/2009 3:52:38 PM GMT Allen has about 1.5M in poker winnings, seems like we will be hearing from him in near future winning bigger tournaments.
Sorry but i think you're wrong and i think he won't win tomuch in big tournaments. It say he got reputation for the years of playing which and then it say he won 1,5 milion through the poker.
If you compare him to the other guy from news Eric Baldwin he didn't look to good.
