Good Mix of Events on Offer
Last week, the WSOP Online bracelet schedule offered a solid mix of different events catering to different preferences. There was one ultra deepstack tournament earlier in the week, followed by PKO and 6-max events over the weekend.
Tuesday Event #6, the Ultra Deepstack, was the cheapest one on the menu, with the price tag of $400. This probably helped boost the numbers despite it taking place mid-week, as a total of 2,238 entries created the prize pool of $805,680.
In the end, the bracelet went to the hands of Russell Brooks, who pocketed $99,180 for his efforts.
Saturday was reserved for Event #7, a $500 NLHE PKO tournament, which ended up with 1,603 entries by the time the registration closed. This translated into the $721,350 prize pool and the first place money of $40,577. This amount went to Ilija Savevski, together with $44,200 he collected in bounties.
Finally, Event #8 on Sunday brought us over the magic line, becoming the first WSOP Online bracelet event with a prize pool of over a million. This was a $1,000 6-max event, and it ended up with 1,233 entries, for the total pot of $1,109,700.
The final prize of $153,249 went to the player with an alias ‘MikeMatusow,’ which created some confusion for keen observers. However, it turned out that this nick actually belongs to one Sungbin Ma and not Mike 'The Mouth’ Matusow.
In Pennsylvania, there was one bracelet event on Sunday, a $500 Deepstack Turbo, which attracted 170 entries for the prize pool of $76,500. The win went to ‘KMILLER1979,’ who claimed a WSOP bracelet and $17,151 in cash for his efforts.
