On Wednesday, May 15, Harrah’s New Orleans Event #7 $365 No-Limit Hold’em came to an end after two long days of play. The tournament attracted 350 players and created a prize pool of $105,000, but after all was said and done it was 35-year-old New Orleans musician Trey Brabham who emerged victorious to capture his first ring and the accompanying $24,147 first-place prize.

“This is so great,” Brabham said after his win. “I came so close a few times here before in New Orleans. This time, I just said I was going to play to win and not worry about moving up in prize money, that that strategy worked.”

It wasn’t easy for Brabham, who plays classical guitar and had previously made three final tables at the Harrah’s New Orleans property, as he entered Day 2 last in chips among the 14 returning players. Fortunately lady luck favored him and he managed to overcome the hurdle, not too mention two three-time ring winners at the final table, Robert Castoire and Maurice Hawkins, who finish in fifth and third respectively.
