The heads-up match for the Parx Big Stax 500 Championship, a tournament that attracted 1,496 entrants, began with Joel Deutsch facing a 52-million to seven-million chip deficit against Kenny Huynh. It ended, after a 19-hour day, with Deutsch coming out on top after a heads-up battle for the ages.
Deutsch rode the rollercoaster and staved off elimination multiple times over a two-hour match, scoring a $126,995 payday at the end of a grueling final day at Parx Casino in Bensalem, Pennsylvania.
Deustch was short stacked for most of three-handed play and beyond, but came away with the biggest score of his career.
Deutsch, Huynh (2nd - $80,298), and Bosu Avunoori (3rd - $52,300) were the final three, with Huynh and Avunoori holding most of the chips. In a span of one big hand, followed by another final duel between Huynh and Avunoori, and heads-up play was set.
'I had nothing to lose,' said Deutsch of the heads-up battle. 'I'm thinking one thing; I've got second place. I didn't picture this.'
Deutsch chipped away at the lead and won a couple of big pots, at one point he avoided elimination with jack-ten offsuit in a preflop all in against Huynh's ace-jack.
'It kept getting better from there,' said Deutsch. 'I really got some momentum going.'

Long Grind to the Final Table
Day 3 started with 42 players, and it took nearly 11 hours to reach the nine-handed final table. Coming back from dinner break, 14 players remained, and it took another hour after that for the next elimination, with David Clarke going out in 14th place ($6,182).
Two more eliminations happened within the following hour, but after that, the tournament remained an 11-player affair for another two-plus hours.
The floodgates broke in Level 31, however, with Adam Pepper (11th -$7,888) and Joey Deforca (10th- $7,888) going out within minutes of each other, sending the remaining nine players to the final table.
Bouyan Han (9th - $10,019) went out on one of the first hands of the final table, trimming the field down to eight.
Final Table Action
Jeffrey Giordano was next to go, taking eighth place after suffering a knockout at the hands of Avunoori.
Things started to get wild at the final table after that, with William Corvino (7th - $16,557) and Sumeet Wayachal (6th - $21,53) both knocked out in the same hand by Avunoori. The trio got into a three-way preflop all in with Avunoori’s pocket kings holding up to eliminate both opponents.
Shortly after that, Michael Wolf (5th - $28,637) found himself on the wrong end of a set-over-set cooler, losing his stack to Huynh when Wolf’s eights full were bested by Huynh’s queens full.
Four-handed play continued to involve big pots, including a massive pot won by Deutsch in a hand that began with Deutsch limping in from the cutoff, and eventually taking down a nearly 10-million chip pot at Michael Michnik’s expense. Michnik went out a few hands later.
That concludes our coverage of the Big Stax 500 event, but the Parx Big Stax XXXII continues this weekend with the Big Stax 1100 tournament, which we'll also live report.

The biggest buy-in event on the Parx Big Stax XXVI poker tournament series schedule wrapped up this past weekend at Parx Casino with a Harrisburg player collecting the title and a six-figure score.
In fact, Chris Kennedy, a cash game pro from the state capitol, won the Parx Big Stax XXVI 1500 for a whopping $124,211. Kennedy got the best of a final table that included back-to-back Big Stax 300 champ Joe Palma.
Philadelphia’s Palma won the Big Stax 300 at Big Stax XXI in May 2017 for $60,675. He then got the title, trophy, and $120,000 in a four-way chop in the Parx Big Stax XXII 300 in August 2017.
However, in this week’s Parx Big Stax XXVI 1500, Palma finished third for $51,012. Kennedy went on to defeat Thai Ha heads up. Ha settled for $78,380 in second-place money.

The event drew 371 total entries, creating what amounted to a $539,805 prize pool.
Solve For Why Academy poker coach Christian Soto-Vasquez finished fifth for $27,530. Here’s how the entire final table finished up:
- 1st Chris Kennedy $124,211
- 2nd Thai Ha $78,380
- 3rd Joe Palma $51,012
- 4th Agenor Souza $36,653
- 5th Christian Soto-Vasquez $27,530
- 6th David DeNoon $20,836
- 7th Anna Antimony $15,924
- 8th Spencer Champlin $11,552
- 9th Filippos Stavrakis $7,881
The Big Stax XXVI 1500 final table
According to the Parx Big Stax Blog, Stavrakis took ninth when Ha turned quads and faded Stavrakis’ open-ended straight flush draw. Champlin ran pocket nines into Kennedy’s aces to bow out eighth. Last-woman standing Anna Antimony took seventh when Ha drew out against her weak ace.
The final table was down to five when David DeNoon’s eights failed to hold against Kennedy’s two overs. Then, it took a classic cooler to end Soto-Vasquez’ run in fifth. His pocket kings were bested by Palma’s pocket aces.
Ha took most of Souza’s stack turning a set of eights and filling up on the river against him. Kennedy took the rest when his own pocket eights held against Souza’s weak-ace shove.
Palma took third when his king-ten suited whiffed versus Kennedy’s queens.
Finally, Ha turned trip threes and a king-high diamond flush draw, getting it in against Kennedy’s naked nut flush draw. A fourth diamond on the river sealed the win for Kennedy.
