Gavin Cochrane Shines in the PokerStars Titans Event

Related Topics: Omaha hold 'em

British poker pro Gavin "gavz101" Cochrane is best known for his Pot-Limit Omaha prowess, but Cochrane is no slouch at No-Limit Hold'em either. Over the weekend, Cochrane swapped his usual four hole cards for two, and did so with superb results.

Eight-one players bought into the $5,200 Titans Event, the biggest buy-in weekly tournament at PokerStars. Those 81 entrants created a $405,000 prize pool, of which a cool $82,607 is now nestled in Cochrane's account. The top 11 finishers secured a min-cash of $10,221, with Yuri "theNERDguy" Dzivielevski being the unfortunate soul who popped the all-important money bubble.
