Players hailing from Brazil dominated proceedings in the latest edition of 888poker’s flagship online tournament. The $100,000 Mystery Bounty Main Event attracts players from far and wide, each hoping to turn $109 into a much larger payday. This week’s event drew in 1,029 entrants who created a $102,900 prize pool; Brazil’s Samba stars got their hands on more than their fair share.
One of the $3,000 mystery bounty payments found its way to “aziz.Mancha” before they crashed out in 31st place. 888poker StreamTeam Ambassador Leo “KaizenStyle” Jokura fell in 22nd place, but not before they opened a golden envelope containing the $10,000 jackpot mystery bounty. Their total haul of $10,437 was the largest payout of the entire tournament.
Day 1 of the $100,000 Mystery Bounty Main Event saw the field whittle to the eight-handed final table. Four of those eight finalists proudly 온라인카지노 displayed the Brazilian flag next to their alias, including chip leader “AquiNaoNene9,” who had a final table to forget!
The final table lost its first player 10 minutes into the action. “gabooor” open-shoved for a little less than 11 big blinds with ace-six from the button and lost to the ace-queen of “bluegemknife” who called from the big blind with ace-queen. The at-risk player flopped a six, but a queen landed on the river to end their participation in the tournament.
The chip leader endured a torrid time during their brief final table appearance. First, they lost a 900,000 chip pot when they ran into the flopped full house of fellow Brazilian “feij40” and then found themselves with less than an ante with their ace-king lost a huge pot against “cruiselini” and their pocket kings.
