Walter Chambers' third cash of the PGT Mixed Games 2024 was the elusive victory he had been looking for. After finishing fourth in Event #8 and sixth in Event #9, Chambers bested a field of 28 entries to win Event #10: $5,100 No-Limit 2-7 for $63,000.
Chambers bought into Event #10 late after busting in sixth place on the livestreamed 10-Game Championship final table. He steadily chipped up, but by the time the final table was reached, he had slipped and was seventh in chips of the remaining seven players. However, an early double-up through John Riordan put him in the middle of the pack. He made the money with a below-average stack, but another double-up through Riordan put him into the chip lead.
The lengthy four-handed battle saw each player hold the chip lead at one point or another, but ultimately a third double-up for Chambers through Riordan was too much for the latter to come back from. After Felipe Ramos eliminated Jonathan Krela in third place, Chambers was at a 2-to-1 disadvantage beginning heads-up play. However, a double-up for Chambers quickly into the match gave him the lead, and a few minutes later he closed it out.
