Castoire Lets His Chips Do the Talking

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

A short two weeks ago Robert Castoire won the WSOPC Southern Indiana Main Event. He outlasted a field of 313 players and collected his third WSOPC ring. Castoire beat a final table that had ESPN's Bernard Lee and WSOPC ringer Mark "Pegasus" Smith. At one point during heads up play he was down 11-1 in chips but managed a dramatic turnaround in about 20 minutes to capture the title.

Castoire prefers to fly under the radar at the table, sometimes even appearing to be sleeping due to his downward stare. But players should not be fooled, his chips do all the talking. After his victory he relayed a story of how in 2006, after winning a considerable sum at the WSOPC stop at Caeasr's, he got a very expensive, but invaluable, lesson from none other than Chip Reese.
