Ochana’s form in the Harrah’s Horseshoe Casino, and the Chicago Poker Classic, in particular, is something else. He finished 3/360 in the 2012 Main Event for a $108,268 score, he beat 745 entrants on his way to victory in the 2014 Main Event, and Kleinhenz stopped him from repeating that feat just days ago. You’re not supposed to remember the guy who finishes second. We’ll make an exception for Ochana.
