He also finished in second place at the 2006 Mandalay Bay Poker Championship winning $604,765. Boutin is known for drinking "Red Bull" at the poker table and acting a little hyper between hands.

During the 2001 World Series of Poker $2,000 Pot Limit Hold'em event, Boutin won his first bracelet after he had defeated Dave Ulliott heads-up. When he won his second bracelet in 2007, Ulliott was again at the final table, this time finishing third.[2]
