SCOOP-44-M: $530 NLHE [Sunday Million SE], $1M Gtd

SCOOP-44-M: $530 NLHE [Sunday Million SE], $1M Gtd was a special edition of the Sunday Million and it certainly was special. A field of 3,419-entries ensured the $1 million guarantee was blown out of the water with a gargantuan prize pool worth $1,709,500 being shared among the top 485 finishers.

Each of the nine finalists locked up no less than $16,375 for their efforts. “Rekond” and “CryFishCry” were the first casualties under the spotlight before Ricardo “10rmc10.com” Caprichoso busted in seventh for $32,226.

Francis “NoHayMiedo*” Cruz, all the way over in the beautiful Dominican Republic, netted $45,208 for his sixth-place exit.

Three more players busted, Brazil’s “marceloaziz” and “ZAR84” of Germany, before “MrTermo1021” collected the first six-figure prize of the event, namely $124,812.

The last standing pair of players paused the tournament clock and discussed a deal. Those discussions bore fruit and the tournament continued with a new payout structure. This meant “Murashko” of Belarus got their hands on $204,110 when they fell in second-place, leaving the UK’s “Corback_fr” to get their hands on a whopping $216,617.

Place	Player	Country	Payout

If you thought those payouts were incredible, wait until you get a load of the ones that were awarded in the SCOOP-44-H: $5,200 NLHE [Sunday HR SE], $1M Gtd!

Nobody at the final table won less than $27,767, the sum given to “Sintoras” when they busted in ninth place. Alexandros “mexican222” Kolonias continued his impressive form with an eighth-place finish worth $36,641 before Pedro “pm_marke” Marques turned his $2,100 into $48,281.

Chris “ImDaNuts” Oliver was the sixth-place finisher, a position that paid $63,665. Russia’s Sergei “Futti18” Koliakov fell in fifth and was the last player not to walk away with a six-figure haul. The Russian collected $83,951.

$110,701 went to Finland’s “makebofin” whose tournament came to an abrupt end in fourth place. Jens “Graftekkel” Arends came close to a SCOOP title but had to make do with the $145,974 third-place prize instead.

Arends’ exit left Joel “Odonkor1” Nordkvist and Andrey “Anjeyyy” Novak of the Ukraine heads-up for the title. The pair didn’t strike a deal despite more than $61,000 being the difference in prize money. This meant Nordkvist banked $192,486 when he fell by the wayside in second, and Anjeyyy walked away with a wallet-filling $253,819!

1	Andrey "Anjeyyy" Novak	Ukraine	$253,819
