On Wednesday, Hevad “RaiNKhaN” Khan won the $2,000 buy-in no limit hold’em preliminary event at the 2008 Foxwoods Poker Classic, winning $108,000.
Khan, who gained fame in reaching the final table of last year’s World Series of Poker main event, beat a field of 192 people to win the event. But that is just part of Khan’s recent string of success, according to pokerkingblog.com
Anyways, the last month has been a particularly good one for Khan.
First he took 14th in the main event of the WSOP Circuit event in Atlantic City. This was good for $13.4k, but Khan was just getting started. A few weeks later, Khan outlasted 2503 other players and took down the Sunday Warm-up on Pokerstars for $98k, which was his biggest online cash ever. As you can imagine, Khan used his subdued and calm nature to patiently navigate his way through the tournament.
Khan, who got a lot of TV time last year for his antics at the WSOP, may have to be more subdued at this year’s events — new rules have been made to try to curtail excessive celebration.
