EPT Dortmund 2008

Later Results
In November 2009, Chabot cashed twice in the Hold'em Series: a 17th-place finish in the Main Event (178 players, €4,915) and an 11th-place finish in a Side Event (162 players, €1,105). These remain his only documented results on public records.

His career serves as a reminder that even players with limited results can temporarily outperform the game's biggest stars.
