Niklas Åstedt, Benjamin Voreland, Maximilian Diender y Sam Mather se llevaron un título cada uno. Åstedt en particular está mostrando su destreza en el juego con este su segundo título de la serie, sin mencionar el segundo puesto y el acceso a las semifinales del evento Heads Up, lo que hace un total de cuatro mesas finales hasta el momento. ¡festival!
Not only that but four, starting flights in the $3,000,000 guaranteed WPTDeepStacks and $1,000,000 guaranteed Mini WPTDS events took place last night. The anticipation in both events has been building for the last week and today and tomorrow are the last opportunities to get in on the action ahead of tomorrow’s 8 Día de la tarde 2 patada inicial.
Eliminatoria de la OLP - $2,100
Yesterday five of the 104 starters returned with one ladder already in the bag following Jason Mercier’s elimination in 6th place at the end of Day 1. Returning at 7 pm* the tournament took just one hour to play to a winner, with Benjamin Voreland converting his significant chip advantage from the previous day into a first-place result.
Voreland had already accumulated almost $14,000 in bounties and by the end of it, he had taken a massive $47,750 out of the prize pool in bounties alone, around ten times that of anyone else in the field. That also ensured the Norwegian banked around a third of the total prize pool as the result of his fantastic run.
Niki Juhani Nurmisto ocupó el segundo puesto, superando al segundo líder Sam Higgs en tercer lugar y Joni Jouhkimainen ocupó el cuarto lugar. Connor Drinan fue el primero en caer cuando se reanudó el juego, aunque el estadounidense logró aumentar sus márgenes de ganancias al conseguir el segundo mayor bounty del torneo.
Mini PLO Knockout - $215
Al mismo tiempo se desarrolló el evento Mini y atrajo a 320 players to the virtual felt, collecting $64,000 dentro del pot. Niklas Åstedt and Javier Zarco bagged the top two stacks in Day 1 and the two held on to those positions until the end, when the Swedish online powerhouse came out on top after defeating the Spanish pro heads up.

Tomas Geleziunas, Danil Karavaev, Andres Ojeda and Li Zhang also made the table, denying Nana Imnadze (7th) a seat. Aristeidis Moschonas (10th), Daniel Tighe (11th) and John Spillane (12th) all fared well but couldn’t make it to the final either.
8-Recompensa máxima de Turbo: $530
More than double the $100,000 guarantee was generated, as 378 players sat down to compete for a share of the $189,000 prize pool. It took four-and-a-half hours from start to finish, with Maximilian Diender reigning supreme at the end of it. Sarah Targui did her best to challenge the Dutchman but fell at the last to take the runner up position.
Joris Ruys was among the notables, taking an impressive third place and the Dutch results on the final table didn’t end there, with Jelle Moene coming in fourth. Hendrik Hovsepyan and Christopher Johnson rounded up the final table, leaving streamer and coach Benjamin Rolle (7th) out in the cold.
Simón Mattsson (8th), Steven Van Zadelhoff (11th), Matas Cimbolas (13th), Team partypoker Josip Simunic (14th) y Jerry Ödeen (18th) all made it into the top 20, with Conor Beresford, Boris Kolev, Arsenii Karmatckii and WPT Champion’s Club member Ole Schemion also among the big names who made a return on their investment.
Mini 8-Recompensa máxima de Turbo: $55
Sam Mather lifted his first trophy of the series after he saw off all the opposition in a 1,906-strong field. Jacobus Visser presented the greatest challenge but couldn’t defeat Mather heads up, finishing in second. Vyacheslav Nikulin, Govand Amin, Vaidas Smigelskas and Steve Trepanier all did extremely well to make the final six too.
