The six players joined forces on the PokerGO stage for over seven hours of play to battle to a winner on the live stream. Keith Tilston started the stream as the chip leader and put on a strong performance in his first USPO cash.
Chidwick takes first place in the USPO standings from previous event winners Justin Bonomo and Mike Gorodinksy. With the win, Chidwick improved upon his sixth-place finish from Event 1.
The final table beat by Chidwick was as formidable as it gets with Daniel Negreanu and Jake Schindler two of the players standing in his way.
Negreanu brought in a new style of play to the final table and explained to Maria Ho what it is that’s different about his game.

The all-time leader in tournament earnings talked to Poker Central about what motivated him to capture his first tournament win in Las Vegas since 2008.
The first played to bust at the final table was Seth “Shark Darvish” Davies, who fell at the hands of Tilston. Brent Hanks soon followed Davies to the payout desk to collect his fifth-place money.
