The Latin American Poker Tour Peru Main Event wrapped up late Tuesday at the Atlantic City casino in Lima, and after a long final day and nearly four hours’ worth of heads-up poker, Claudio Moya of Chile came away with the trophy and a $135,576 first prize following a heads-up deal.
Moya came out on top of a 366-entry field in the $2,500 buy-in tournament, outlasting Chadi Moustapha of Lebanon to with the trophy and largest share of the $807,396 prize pool. The 51-year-old businessman bettered a 14th-place showing in the same LAPT Peru Main Event last year for which he earned $9,880, Moya’s best previous cash.
