But enough with the lead-up; let’s see what happened.

Event #8: Turbo NLH Championship

The first event completed was the $2,500 buy-in Turbo No Limit Hold’em Championship, which started at 14:00 UTC on August 27th. With a total of 623 poker players buying into this fast-paced event, the action was furious. It took less than 7 hours for the $1,479,625 prize pool to be fully split among the 87 ITM players. A min-cash of $5,462.74 more than doubled the buy-in for the 30 players who survived long enough to win something. The final table was riddled with strong players, but in the end, it was ‘AmassTeRoK’, flying the flag of the Russian Federation, who claimed the victory, WSOP Gold Bracelet, and $219,233.45 top prize. Second place was captured by ‘GLAPEP’, sporting the Hong Kong flag, earning $169,051.89, while Canadian ‘NiceAndSlow’ took third for $130,356.82.

The final table once reached, had three named pros, Roman Hrabed, Filipe Monteiro, and Sergei Denisov, but none of them managed to capture the bracelet.
