Banghart has excellent results when he crosses the river to come play in Council Bluffs. In 2007, he made the final table here at this same event, taking home $54,000 for his fourth-place showing. Now, he's back at it again in 2009. Banghart took down the first preliminary event of this circuit, pocketing $30,000 right out of the gate. A few days later, he would go deep once again, racking up another final table and a fifth-place score.
"Mr. Rain" knows his way around the online game as well. Each year from 2005 through 2007, Banghart has gone deep in the PokerStars Sunday Million at least once. His best score came in 2006 when he took down the whole thing, good enough to earn him nearly $190,000. All totaled, this grinder has more than $1,000,000 in total online winnings.
Banghart has some work to do today; he will start near the bottom of the pack with 52,000.
