Chowdary started playing poker during his college times for fun and quickly found interest in it, where he started online with low stakes after college and played straight for 15 months without any scores. Speaking about the tournament, he said, “The Flash win is the first major score of my lifetime. In this tournament you are bound to take chances with your cards. I tried to move my chips when I was ahead and got lucky at instances where in other hands I had a great run. I will try to be in the poker circuit as much as possible and I want to be a tourney specialist in future. I like to play cash games, but tournaments are the way to go forward for me.”

The winner was announced at 12:36 am when the last hand happened in Level #40 with blinds 12,000-24,000-3,000 where after posting blinds both the heads-up opponents pushed their chips in mid of the table to see the showdown.
