On top of a career best score, Brandau also wins a seat to RGPS Pro/Am in Las Vegas, Nevada at the end of the year in the PokerGO Studio. It was through fortunate runouts that Brandau dominated the two tables of the event, knocking out nearly half of the remaining field.
The former moving company owner, who topped a field of 794 runners, came into the day as the overwhelming chip leader with over 937,000 and at multiple times throughout the day he found himself as one of the shortest stacks in the room. “The hands that ran out, to be able to win those hands, it’s a rush.” “It felt like it was meant to be,” an elated Brandau said after a final table that lasted just over three hours.
