Smiljkovic already entered the final table as massive chip leader and never looked back; although he had strong competition with the two online crushers George Wolff (5./$115,712) and Marius Gierse (4./$160,040).

The prestigious Championship Event was a big success with 479 entries generating a staggering $2,275,250 prize pool.

The $1,500 MILLIONAIRE MAKER was the first big highlight event of the WSOP Online 2021 and it lived up to the high expectations.

The tournament attracted a massive field of 5,437 entries smashing the $5,000,000 guarantee by over 50%! In the end there were $7,747,725 in the prize pool and an incredible $1,384,013 up top.

Top-ranked Lithuanian online poker player Tomas “dartazzzz” Jozonis was by far the biggest name on the final table, but he busted already in eighth place for $127,521.

The second biggest name Lachezar Plamenov Petkov followed him to the rails directly after and so it was already certain that we would get a surprise winner.

After Brazilian Tauan Naves busted in 3rd place, the heads-up duel between Austrian Lukas Hafner and Eduardo Pires was set up and it started with almost even stacks.

That changed drastically when the latter picked off a big bluff giving him a large 2.5 to 1 chip lead.

Pires then went on to finish Hafner off soon after, when he turned a straight against the Austrian’s top pair. Hafner’s defeat and second place was sweetened up with a whopping $984,469.
