Final Day Action

The day kicked off at 3 pm EST with 305 players returning to the online felt. They already reached the money on the previous day with a total of 2,627 entries into the event. The pot-limit Omaha variance brought plenty of action as it usually does which meant a quick finish for many of the notable names. Laurynas Levinskas, Rui Ferreira, Kahle Burns, Isaac Baron, George Wolff, Ludovic Geilich, Sergi Reixach, and Mike Watson were some of the familiar names to hit the showers early on.

After just a couple of hours, less than 100 players were left fighting for the title. Andras Nemeth, Fedor Holz, and Joao Vieira were some more of the casualties within the next hour. Holz started off the day as one of the chip leaders but found himself on one of the short stacks mid-way through the day. With all of the chips in the middle already, Holz rivered a king-high flush only to have his opponent make an ace-high flush which ended his day.

Leading up to the final table, multiple players took turns sharing the chip lead but it was the eventual winner "rubbherducky" who led at the start of the final table. It didn't take long for "LemonRanger" to be the first to hit the rail when his pocket kings were cracked by a queen-high flush from "jellopy77". Just moments later, "rubbherducky" started his string of eliminations en route to being the champion.

"QuarantinPlaya" was the first victim after his pocket queens were out-flopped. "rubbherducky" flopped a straight and a flush draw and held on to bring the field down to just four players. Keeping up with his aggressive style, "rubbherducky" raised nearly every pot, chipping away at his opponent's stacks.

"RunItOncePls" finally picked up three connected cards with one suit and decided to go with it. However, "rubbherducky" woke up with aces in the small blind and held on to eliminate "RunItOncePls" in fourth place. "jellopy77" was sitting comfortably in second place throughout the final table but was also getting short as time went on. He found himself at risk with pocket kings and even a turned set of kings wasn't enough to save him. "rubbherducky" turned a straight and the board would not pair up on the river.

That left "rubbherducky" and "Love2Spew" to battle heads-up but it wasn't much of a contest. Some small pots went back and forth in the early going but in the first all-in, "rubbherducky" ended the tournament.

With 15-minute levels throughout most of the tournament, the action was fast-paced and once the bubble burst at Level 26, players started hitting the rail even faster.

"waransan" flew under the radar for most of the day and it wasn't until the final two tables were reached that he began emerging as a threat to his opponents. He was responsible of the elimination of "ALaGrandeLePuseCuca" in thirteenth place with ace-queen against "ALaGrandeLePuseCuca"'s eights in an all in preflop situation to climb to the top of the leaderboard and he found himself taking a seat at the final table with the second biggest stack a couple of levels later. Between making the right plays, and getting the right cards at the right time, he maneuvered his way to four-handed, with the chip lead. "waransan" briefly lost the lead three-handed but he won a three-way all in shortly after to start a heads-up match against "DameDolla" as a favorite.

The heads-up battle only lasted a couple of hands until "DameDolla" called an all in raise on the flop with an ace-high flush draw against "waransan" who had mid-pair. "DameDolla" couldn't hit and "waransan" was crowned the winner.

"Beishadezhu2" was "waransan"'s next victim when he four-bet jammed with ace-queen into "waransan"'s kings. While "Beishadezhu2" flopped an ace, "waransan" turned a set of kings to take back the lead.

"Iaolalo"'s tournament life ended in sixth place after he got his aces cracked by "HowdyTeeexas"'s queens.
