Sam Greenwood and Fedor Holz leading after Day 1
At the end of the $35 Million GTD Partypoker Powerfest was the absolute highlight with a $25,500 Super High Roller with 3 Million Dollar Guaranteed!
A total of 127 players paid the $25,500 buy-in to generate a staggering prize pool of $3,175,000.
Only 16 players returned for Day 2 including super stars such as Fedor Holz, Ben “CowEyed” Tollerene, Viktor “Isildur1” Blom, Jason Koon, Manig “lianmannu” Loeser and Sam “DeanMalenko” Greenwood, who finished Day 1 as Chipleader.
However, Fedor Holz in 3rd and Ben Tollerene in 5th were hot on his heals.
Min-Cash of $53,000, $846,773 up top!
12 places were paid and the min-cash was a whooping $53.000, with a staggering $846,773 up top.
Jason Koon busted before the money and Bubble Boy became “PokerG1rl69”.
New Partypoker Pro Fedor Holz made it to the final table, but busted in 7th for $185.420, while former chipleader Sam „DeanMalenko“ Greenwood followed him in 5th for $247.967.
Heads-Up between legends Viktor “Isildur1” Blom and Ben “CowEyed” Tollerene
Eventually it came down to a Heads-Up between the two old rivals as Ben Tollerene and Viktor Blom.
Tollerene had a massive 5 to 1 chiplead, but Blom managed to close the gap. Then came the final hand on a board of 8-8-9-A-9 Blom made a huge overbet shove for two times pot and Tollerene quickly called with 10-8 for the Full House.
Isildur1 was on a stone cold bluff having missed his straight draw with Q-J and Ben Tollerene was crowned Powerfest Super High Roller Champion for $846,773!
High Stakes Cash Game ft. Luke Schwartz, Isildur1, Leon Tsoukernik, Matt Kirk
Parallel to the Super High Roller ran Sam Trickett’s weekly High Stakes Cash Game ft. Luke Schwartz, Isildur1, Leon Tsoukernik, Matt Kirk, Rob Yong, Jan-Peter Jachtmann and Andrew Pantling.
The sickest part was that Viktor „Isildur1“ Blom was playing the final table and Heads-Up of the Super High Roller and at the same time in the high stakes cash game – What a boss!
They played $100/$200 Pot-Limit Omaha and Matt „Aussie Matt“ Kirk once again emerged as the biggest winner.
