On WSOP.com in Nevada, the first tournament of the seven-event December Deep Stack Series nearly tripled the guarantee.

Of those in the field, the top 20 spots made the money, with a min-cash being worth $37.51.
Finishing on the money bubble in 21st place was "shelley5." The remaining 20 players then fought it out for nine spots at the final table and a guaranteed score of $69.26. When it was all said and done, "TooManyDogs" was the champion, earning the $779.22 top prize.
