Back To Back: Alicia LaPorte Pachla Wins the WNYPC Event #4 for $2,500

Everybody's favorite Niagara Falls Poker Room regular Alicia LaPorte Pachla made it back-to-back wins in the first two nightly $150 No Limit Hold'em events on the Western New York Poker Challenge schedule Monday night, taking down Event #4.

Pachla was part of a multi-way chop that gave her the title and trophy in Event #2 Sunday, then chopped heads up to take home $2,500 and a second piece of hardware.

Monday's event drew 72 players creating a slight overlay to cover the $10,000 guarantee. Pachla ran hot early then stayed the course throughout the tournament before heating up again at the final table and finally chopping heads-up with fellow local tournament regular Art Demmerley.
