Mobay wins first Mansion Poker holiday event

Mansion Poker has sweetened the pots of several tournaments this month for the holiday season, and Mobay was the first to get a taste of how sweet the added money is.

The tournament series kicked off Monday with a $50 + $5 buy-in tournament with $5,000 added to the prize pool. Mobay fended off a field of 219 players to walk away with more than $4,300.

Mobay earned his championship title by pulling off a straight to take down Tampataxcpa. Mobay had J-T up against Tampataxcpa's A-T. The flop brought K-6-Q, and all Mobay needed was the nine that came on the river to seal the deal.

There are still 28 more events to go in this tournament series with $245,000 in extra cash still to be added to events.

The event schedule is:

• Monday through Friday until Dec. 29, 8 p.m. (EST), $50 + $5 buy-in, $5,000 added tournaments
• Saturdays until Dec. 30, 8 p.m. (EST), $100 + $9 buy-in, $10,000 added tournaments
• Sundays until Dec. 31, 8 p.m. (EST), $200 + $15 buy-in, $20,000 added tournaments
