The World Series of Poker in Las Vegas came to an end just over two weeks ago, and as a wealth of professional players departed from the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino, many returned to their normal daily online poker grind.

One man who was back on the online streets earlier than the others was former PocketFives Worldwide #1-ranked Chris Moorman. The Brit, who achieved a personal record of 11 WSOP cashes in a single series over the summer, was at his newly purchased home in Las Vegas on Sunday, July 15 when he fired up tournaments on WSOP.com and other online sites.

The evening’s grind was going well for the 888poker ambassador. With several cashes already locked up, he contemplated registering in just one more, the $500 $25,000 GTD Weekly Sunday 6-max on WSOP.com. Just a few hours later, Moorman won the tournament for a score of $16,928.75 and in doing so he became the first player to achieve $15m in recorded online cashes.

“It was cool that I got over the mark with a win,” said Moorman. “I was really close after I min-cashed a high roller tournament on Americas Cardroom for around $4,000 earlier that evening and I needed about $5,500 in cashes at the start of the session to make it over the $15 million mark.”

“I wasn’t sure I was even going to play that tournament, as I was approaching the end of my session, but I was still in some other tables, so I jumped in at the last minute with ten big blinds, and within about 90 minutes I was at the final table,” he added.

The win for Moorman secured the accolade and his 365th PocketFives gold medal. The 33-year-old became well-known in the online poker world when he achieved the first of his 28 online Triple Crowns in March of 2007 and rose to the top of world rankings by August 2008. Moorman would consistently perform and hold the top spot on-and-off over the next six years, building up an online record others simply couldn’t get close to.

“It’s nice to have these achievements, I’m very proud of them,” said Moorman. “I feel like I’ve been around poker for such a long time now, and seen lots of people come and go. So it’s great to try and get at least one triple crown each year now.”

Moorman has switched his attention to live poker more over the last few years, while also concentrating on his 888poker ambassador role. Despite that, his online ambition remains high, while admitting that it is harder to achieve now.

“It’s getting tougher and tougher to do. Some of the guys, especially the Swedish players, they don’t play live often and are at home grinding putting up a ridiculous amount of cashes on the board. And with the weekly high roller tournaments, they can catch up pretty quickly if they want to. So it’s nice for me to still put up some numbers online and keep them off my back for the time being.” said Moorman.

Moorman went on to say that one of his biggest fans is his dad, who is always keeping an eye on his next targets.

“My dad is always telling me what I need to do to hit certain goals and targets in poker. My aim originally was to hit the $15m mark around the time of 888poker XL series. I knew If I had a good score it would take me over, as at the start of the series I was around $200,000 off the mark. But once that didn’t happen, I figured it would come further down the line after the WSOP, but I was able to do it playing on WSOP.com just days after the series had ended.”

The WSOP can be a grueling experience with a packed schedule for most players. With Moorman cashing in 11 events as well as three outside of the Rio, which included victory in the $1,025 + 75 No Limit Hold’em Wynn Summer Classic for $55,805, the former Essex based player said he was feeling the pace ahead of the Main Event.

“It was long days, and even though it was only Day 5 when I busted the Main Event, I felt quite tired, and this time it was a weird experience for me. My only other deep run in the Main came in 2012 when I finished in 358th place. I made a big mistake to exit, and I had quite a lot of regret about that. Most poker hands you can move on from pretty quickly, but at the time I thought that could have been my shot to win it.

“This time around I didn’t have any regrets. However, there was one key hand that was a turning point for me. I had a ten high flush against another U.K. professional, and I raised the river against his overbet and folded to his jam on a paired board.

“The way I played the hand, and I could never have a full house, so he could exploit me by bluffing, but I didn’t think he would do it in the Main Event. Only afterward, I found out he held a nine high flush, so it didn’t affect me, but it was a tilting moment. Looking back it was one of those maybe it was meant to be moments.”

Despite a new breed of players dominating and dedicating all of their time to online poker, rather than traveling on the live tour, it could be some time before there is a challenger knocking at the door for Moorman’s earnings record. Online grinder Sebastian ‘p0cket00‘ Sikorski is his current nearest rival with $11,671,941 in recorded online cashes.

Moorman admitted he has a better life balance now, which includes a reduced online schedule. It serves him to better enjoy his time playing online rather than be controlled by the frustrations it can bring, while also traveling on the live tour.

“I can only be in America for six months of the year, and of course the WSOP takes up two months of that. As for the rest of 2018, I’m going back to England for two weeks and then Barcelona, before spending my time in Mexico to play online before again heading back to Europe, it is here there and everywhere for me.”

Moorman will once again be present at his home country event in November as 888poker LIVE bring their tour to London’s Aspers Casino.

Less than a year after winning a record 26th Online Triple Crown, Chris Moorman set a new landmark in lifetime online tournament cashes at $15 million.

Moorman’s landmark win was the WSOP.com $25,000 Weekly Sunday. He won a “modest” $16,929, but it was enough to push him over the $15 million mark. He has since won an additional $4,345 to push his total online cashes to $15,021,323.

Moorman endured a field of 72 entrants and 53 rebuys to become the first player to hit $15 million. The event lasted a little under 5 hours before Moorman managed to claim victory. The win is his third individual online win since early June. The events he won were the WSOP.com $15,000 Weekly Friday and America’s Cardroom $15,000 DTD – Turbo Mega Stack.

Moorman Finds Success Offline Too

In July alone, Moorman led Team UK to victory in the 888poker 8-Team Competition (which had 7 teams). He, Niall Farrell, and Billy Chattaway managed to tally up 400 points during the competition, with Moorman being the chip leader of surviving players on days 3 and 4 of the competition for massive bonuses. Between his finishes on days 3 and 4 alone, Team UK would have won the competition by 50 points.

Beyond just playing, Moorman signed on to be an official ambassador of 888poker back in June. He joined Kara Scott and Denilson as ambassadors for the online poker giant. When Moorman signed, he had already set the record for top earning online poker player of all time (which he set back in February).

Other names involved at the WSOP.com final table were two-time WSOP bracelet winner Scott Clements (third, $7,005), Jed Hoffman (fourth, $5,838), and Justin Lapka (sixth, $4,028). Rounding out the podium was player “Chipman1728” who took home $9,924.

More From WSOP.com

The biggest prize of the day went to David Goodman, who walked out of the $100,000 GTD Sunday with $37,409. It was Goodman’s second biggest win ever, with his largest coming only two weeks ago at the WSOP Event #63: $3,200 No-Limit Hold’em Online Bracelet High Roller where he won $212,021.

The GTD Sunday event featured 335 entrants, 154 rebuys and lasted a full 9 hours. The event registered as the largest of all American-regulated online poker events last week. 50 entrants won a min-cash of $675. More big winners included James Piccolo (third, $12,616), Craig Varnell (sixth, $6,748), and Michael Haberman Jr. (eighth, $3,374). Second place finisher “Kaakaa” finished with $21,272.

Rounding out the other three tournaments, the WSOP.com $15,000 Kick-off started the day, attracting 146 entrants. Bobby McLawhorn emerged victorious after five and a half hours of play with $4,542

WSOP.com $10,000 Weekly Sunday saw a field of 120 entrants and a five hour event. “Tuckinfittys” won with $4,306.

WSOP.com’s $12,000 Weekly Sunday Deepstack was the second largest tournament of the day, with 214 entrants, 239 rebuys, and 164 add-ons. The prize pool started the day at a $12,000 guarantee and swelled to just over $28,000. Player “herrrooooo” bagged $7,439 after over eight hours of play.

ARTICLE BY: Lee Davy ON: June 07, 2018

3: Barrels of different spices including Chris Moorman winning a title at the Wynn Summer Classic, Bill Perkins writing a book on why people are wasting their lives, and Cate Hall pondering life without poker.

He signed my first book.

He didn’t sign my second one.

It’s not the reason I took it over to the coffee shop and left it snuggled between Phil Hellmuth’s autobiography and one of Jonathan Little’s volumes upon volumes.

I’m moving, and I don’t have space in my suitcase.

His first book was a decent chew. I don’t have it anymore. John Eames borrowed it and never returned it. I never read the second one. I heard it was about his life, and I prefer to listen to those things straight from the Moorman’s mouth.

And so when I jumped on a jet plane to come to 888Live Barcelona, Chris Moorman, was THE man I wanted to find. I felt I owed it to him for not flicking through his pages. But when I got here, he was gone.

It didn’t take me long to find him.

I woke up the next morning, headed to a little cafe for apple and cinnamon Oats and a Pakistani tea, and when I turned on the laptop, he was there.

Chris Moorman Wins The $1,100, $200,000 Winn Summer Classic

Moorman calls Las Vegas home these days.

I imagine he spends quite a bit of time in the Wynn, as I know it’s a favourite hangout for the grinders.

With close to $15m in online earnings, only time prevents Moorman from becoming a member of the Poker Hall of Fame. Like Phil Hellmuth and his World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet record, it’s difficult to see anybody closing the gap this side of a nuclear war.

And the lad is a dab hand in the live arena.

Moorman’s victory in the Wynn was the sixth triumph of his career, including a World Poker Tour (WPT) title and WSOP bracelet on his way to racking up $5.5 million on the old live abacus.

The Brighton born batterer out thumped 242 entrants to win the $55,805 first prize in the $1,100 buy-in, $200,000 Guaranteed event at the Wynn Summer Classic. It signified his first victory of 2018, but he has been banging on the door making final tables at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA), partypoker MILLIONS in Barcelona and Montreal.

And the timing is peach perfect.

Last year, he defeated 959 entrants to win the $3,000 No-Limit Hold’em Six-Handed for half a million bucks at the WSOP, and that win will still be wet inside those lips of his.

Can he make it bracelet #2?

He would be one of my picks.

Final Table Results

1. Chris Moorman – $55,805
2. David Jackson – $42,535
3. Prithvi Rudrappa – $24,662
4. David Thomas – $17,083
5. Jeff Wilson – $12,584
6. Blake Whittington – $9,697
7. Matthew Silva – $7,796
8. Ken Huynh – $6,472

Other pieces of orange rind found in this jar of marmalade were Dylan Hortin (15th), Tom Hall (19th) and Justin Zaki (25th).

Bill Perkins is Writing a Book 

One book that won’t end up in a Cardiff coffee shop is the one that Bill Perkins is currently writing.

Back in January, I was fortunate enough to interview Perkins in his Bahamian suite. I took my teenage son with me. He wants to be a millionaire, so I thought, ‘Why not introduce the pair, and see if my boy can pick his brains?’

He did.

He loved it.

Imagine, how much more he would learn if Perkins was to lay out his philosophy of success in a book.

And that’s what’s happening.

Perkins intimated to me in that room that a book was in the offing. PokerNews has just confirmed it.

Perkins told PokerNews that ‘practically all people’ are failing to live up to their true potential, and some may even be ‘wasting their lives.’ He tends to do something about it.

It’s not going to be a quick project.

The PokerNews article suggested chapter previews will arrive in 2019.

Cate Hall Pondering Retirement? 

Here is another book that I would read, and soon Cate Hall may have time on her hands to write it.

I have only interviewed Hall once. It was a disaster. But there is no doubting that this woman has a lot of absorbing things to say. I would love to take the can opener to her and see what lies inside.

I’m not sure I will ever get the opportunity.

PokerTube scribe, Charles Rettmuller, has heard on the Twitter grapevine that Hall may have had enough of poker.

The 34-year-old wrote on Twitter:

After a long time away and a short time back, I’m finding it very easy to see how bad poker is for my brain. I guess I should be grateful for the clarity but it still makes me sad to know it’s coming to an end. 

Matt Salsberg suggested if her mental and emotional state is not up to it she shouldn’t be playing The COLOSSUS to which Hall replied:

I think I’m going to skip most of the summer, even possible until the Main, and be done with poker after it. 

A thought that many, many poker players have, and something worth exploring some point in the future.

Chris Moorman playing Wynn Summer classic takes down 200k guarantee

888poker ambassador Chris Moorman added to his $5,454,776 in live poker tournament winnings by winning the Wynn Summer Classic $200,000 Guaranteed event proving there is value for poker players away from the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino this summer.

Moorman navigated his way to a 30th place finish in the $3,000 Shootout at the 2018 WSOP and banked $6,302 for his efforts. The legendary online grinder, who has recently moved to Las Vegas, obviously didn’t fancy any of the WSOP events in the immediate aftermath of the $3,000 Shootout so decided to make the relatively short trip to the Wynn casino.

It turned out to be the correct decision because Moorman topped a field of 242 entrants to get his hands on $55,805 and another live trophy.

It was a tough nine-handed final table thanks to several of those seated at it being vastly experienced. Ninth-place went to British grinder Gerald “Skullman” David who racked up his fourth Las Vegas cash since May 20.

Also at the final table was a WSOP Circuit regular in the shape of Blake Whittington. The Florida native has nine live victories to his name, including three WSOP Circuit wins and a Mid-Stakes Poker Tour (MSPT) title on his resume. Whittington crashed out in sixth-place for $9,697 and was the last player not to collect a five-figure score in this tournament.

Moorman found himself heads-up against another Florida native in David Jackson who has a superb record in Las Vegas. Jackson has amassed more than $1 million in cashes despite playing for relatively small stakes when it comes to live poker. His largest cash came in 2014 when Jackson finished fourth in a $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em event at the WSOP for $183,498; he banked $42,535 after finishing second to Moorman in this tournament at the Wynn.

It is thought that Moorman will now return to the WSOP action as there are some six-handed events on the horizon, a format that he excels in. Moorman finished second in the $10,000 No-Limit Hold’em Six Handed Championship in 2011 and third in the $2,500 No-Limit Hold’em Six Handed in the same year. The former Brighton-based star got his hands on his first WSOP bracelet in 2017 when he triumphed in the $3,000 No Limit Hold’em Six-handed event, a result that netted him $498,682.

Online poker’s all-time greatest tournament crusher Chris Moorman once again proved he has what it takes to win in the live sphere by taking down the Wynn Summer Classic event 3 last night, a $56k win taking him over the $5.5million live tournament cashes marker.

With most of the poker action in Vegas focused on the World Series of Poker at the Rio, those looking for a change of scenery headed elsewhere – the $200k guaranteed event as part of the Wynn Summer Classic series as good a place as any for the evening…

The 888poker ambassador has amassed over $14million in online tournament cashes under his monikers Moorman1 and 888moorman, the only player to have broken the magical $10million barrier, and is ostensibly in Vegas looking to improve on his 35 cashes and single bracelet – won last year in the $3,000 NLH 6-handed event.

With one cash already and plans to play the WSOP.com online event among many others, Moorman’s recent relocation to Vegas might help in his quest for more glory.

“If you asked me five years ago, Vegas would be the last place on earth I’d end up living,” Moorman told PokerNews’ Chad Holloway this week. “It’s kind of random, but so far so good“.

The Wynn Summer Classic has a full schedule in place for the summer, over 30 events rounded off by the $1600 WSC Championship with a $1.5million guarantee.

Chris Moorman & the 888poker crew descend on Las Vegas in 2018 WSOP

The 2018 World Series of Poker, sponsored by 888poker, is only four days in and already 888poker Ambassador Chris Moorman has notched a cash. He finished 17th in Event #3: $3,000 No-Limit Hold’em Shootout, just missing out on a final table after losing a heads-up battle to Sam Phillips.

It was a good start to the series for online poker’s most accomplished player, who literally flew across the Atlantic days earlier after cashing the Opening Event of the 888LIVE Barcelona. Unfortunately, he had to miss that stop’s Main Event, which is currently being live reported right here on PokerNews.

“I was only there for the first event so I could come back and play the $10K WSOP Turbo,” Moorman said. “When I was there, a lot of the other ambassadors weren’t there yet so I didn’t get to hang out with them. I have some really good friends on the team now having been there for a couple years. So, I was sad to miss them, but obviously, the WSOP is a big attraction as well. You wait for it all year. When it comes along, you’re excited, and a lot of friends will come here too.”

888 Crew Descends on WSOP

Indeed, a roster full of 888poker Ambassadors are expected to contend this summer in Vegas including 2014 WSOP Main Event champ Martin Jacobson, Sweden’s Sofia Lövgren, and streamer Parker “Tonkaaaa” Talbot, just to name a few. Moorman weighed in on who he thought might make some noise.

“I feel really comfortable in six-max, I have a good track record in it.”

“I think someone like Tonkaaaa won’t play because of the Canadian tax situation, and someone like Dominick [Nitsche] might just be in the Aria high rollers all the time,” he said. “Obviously, if Dom plays, he’s going to win stuff, he’s won four bracelets and he’s still so young.

“I think Jacobson could do really well when he gets here. I went deep with him in a Montreal tournament a few months ago. He was really tough to play against. Every time I had the nuts I couldn’t get a chip out of him.”

The tournament Moorman was referring to was a $1,000 event at the Playground Poker Club. Moorman placed third out of 1,231 entries for $69,262, while Jacobson finished sixth for $22,038.

As for the 2018 WSOP, Moorman plans to keep the ball rolling in pursuit of his second bracelet.

“I’m looking forward to all the six-max events,” he said. “I feel really comfortable in six-max, I have a good track record in it. You can get a little more creative and you don’t have to just cooler people. The six-max is always more fun.”

Chris Moorman goes bracelet hunting in 2018 WSOP

Bracelet Hunting in Vegas

Moorman, who won the 2017 WSOP Event #27: $3,000 NLHE 6-Max for $498,682, is also looking forward to the expanded WSOP.com offerings.

“I went deep in one of the events last year,” he said. “I got my account reactivated yesterday. I’m ready to play the Sunday one almost certainly. I’d love to get an online bracelet just to compliment my online history. It’d be nice.”

Interestingly, this marks the first year Moorman has played the WSOP as a full-time resident of Las Vegas.

“If you asked me five years ago, Vegas would be the last place on earth I’d end up living.”

“I was renting a place here for a year to just see if I liked it before moving from L.A.,” he explained. “Surprisingly, I really liked it, so I recently bought a house here. If you asked me five years ago, Vegas would be the last place on earth I’d end up living. It’s kind of random, but so far so good. I’ve been here four or five months, fixed it up a bit. I’m ready to have some parties this summer.”

Speaking of parties, Moorman may make an appearance at D&B Publishing‘s book launch for Lance Bradley‘s “The Pursuit of Poker Success” on Saturday, June 9, sponsored by 888poker.

“I’ve known Lance for a long time and was more than happy to help out,” Moorman said of his chapter. “It’s been interesting to see the extracts from so many great players. I like learning from top players so I’ll definitely read it.”

As for a third book from Moorman, who previously wrote two for D&B Publishing, don’t count on it anytime soon.

“No plans for a third,” he said. “Maybe I need to win the WSOP Main Event for that.”

Having won his first bracelet in 2017, Chris Moorman is ready to add to that total this year. (888 photo)

Online qualifiers, live satellite winners, full-time grinders, weekend warriors, absolute beginners and the best professionals in the world will make up the throng, and there won’t be many among them as accomplished as Chris Moorman.

But how does the bracelet winner, WPT champ, former PocketFives no.1 and winningest online tournament player of all time prepare for the WSOP grind? We caught up with Moorman, who took time out from a busy online schedule, to find out.

PocketFives: Do you find that the big online series like PokerStars’ SCOOP, 888’s XL Inferno, and partypoker’s Powerfest help you settle into your A-game leading into the WSOP?

Chris Moorman: Yes I do. Obviously, live poker is different, but getting into a routine and playing every day is great preparation for the WSOP and by playing so much you really get to hone in on any holes in your game.

PFs: How do you prepare for the WSOP away from the tables?

CM: I think just trying to be in the best possible mindset to play is one of the most important things. I have weekly calls with my mind coach as well to always help me stay on top of my focus and mental game. Additionally, I am always talking over hands with my friends to make sure I am feeling comfortable with my play.

PFs: What are your plans for this year? When are you getting to Vegas, and what does your WSOP schedule look like?

CM: I will be in Barcelona for the 888live event and then will be back in time for the start of the series. I plan on playing pretty much every day, almost all the no limit events and some PLO as well.

PFs: Do you plan on playing any events other than WSOP events this year?

CM: Potentially, although my focus is less on these and depends how I am feeling and if I need a day off.

PFs: Do you feel differently going into this year’s WSOP now that you have a bracelet? Is the pressure gone, or was there never any pressure?

CM: No pressure really, I just know now that I can win a WSOP event, so when I sit down at the start of a tournament the finish line doesn’t look as far away as maybe it had in previous years.

PFs: Who do you predict WSOP success for this year?

M: I think the Brits had a great WSOP last year and I am hoping that will continue this year. I know Niall Farrell is planning on playing a lot this series so hopefully, we can get a rowdy UK final table out of him.

PFs: What would it mean for you to win another bracelet this year? And if you had to pick an event to do it in, which would it be aside from the Main Event?

M: Winning another bracelet would obviously be nice, but more importantly it would most likely mean I would have a winning summer, which is always the ultimate goal. If I could win any tournament it would be the $10K 6-max. I have always wanted to win that one and came so close in 2011 when I lost heads up. It would be a nice redemption after all these years.

The legendary 888poker sponsored Chris “Moorman1” Moorman secured the 360th victory of his online poker tournament career on Apr. 15 when he triumphed in the PokerStars Sunday Warm-Up. Moorman is now rapidly approaching $15 million in online cashes.

PokerStars Sunday Warm-Up

Chris Moorman marched to his 360th online poker tournament victory on Apr. 15 in the PokerStars Sunday Warm-Up. Let that figure settle in for a moment. Moorman has won 360 tournaments, an incredible figure to say the least.

This latest victory added $39,343 to Moorman’s coffers and took his total online tournament winnings to $14,747,857 meaning he is $252,143 away from eclipsing the $15 million barriers.

Moorman locked horns with Brazil’s Dennys “dennysramos2” Ramos heads-up and the Brit, playing out of Canada, proved too much for Ramos to handle. The Brazilian took home $28,551 for his runner-up finish, the fourth-largest online cash of his career.

PocketFives all-time money list leader Chris ‘Moorman1’ Moorman took another step towards the $15 million online earnings accolade after taking down the PokerStars $215 Sunday Warm-Up for $39,343.

Moorman, who celebrated his 28th triple crown last week, is now just over $250,000 away from becoming the first player to hit the $15 million mark. The Brit continued his excellent form into the Sunday Majors by defeating former Sunday Million runner-up ‘dennysramos2‘ heads-up to claim his 360th recorded victory and extends his lead over Nicolas ‘PokerKaiser’ Fierro, atop the all-time money list.

The U.K.’s Tommy ’88pro88′ Lawrence won this week’s PokerStars Sunday Million after a three-way-chop with Canada’s ‘chonseSTEE‘ and ‘designerboy’. The tournament saw 5,598 entries create a prize pool $1,119,600 of which Lawrence took the largest share post-deal banking $131,164 and the title. The result saw Lawrence smash his former highest-cash of $10,571 which came in 2016. ‘chonseSTEE’ and ‘designerboy’ collected $97,728 and $102,896 respectively.

‘Bigfish112392’ also had a brilliant evening on the PokerStars client after victory in the $2,100 Sunday High Roller as well as a seventh-place finish in the Sunday Million for combined total winnings of $74,341. ‘Sasuke234’, who came third in the anniversary Sunday Million earlier this year for $539,554, was the Super High Roller runner-up and earned $33,024 for their efforts.

Elsewhere on Pokerstars, ‘Randane8’ outlasted former TCOOP-59 champion, ‘newguy89’ to win the $530 Bounty Builder High Roller for $36,846. The tournament saw 872 entries which generated a prize pool of $436,000.

2017 PokerStars WCOOP Main Event champion Steven ‘kale333’ van Zadelhoff won this week’s 888poker $1,050 $100,000 Gtd Whale for $32,500 after beating a field of 61 entrants including former PocketFives world #1 ‘tutten7‘, who came second. Van Zadelhoff also achieved the feat of making the final table of the 888poker $215 Sunday Mega Deep, eventually falling in seventh-place for $2,750, with ‘Streusalz’ going on to win the tournament for $19,250.

Over on partypoker, ‘thebattler33’ finished in the top three of $2,600 Sunday Major Super High Roller for the third time in as many weeks after securing the bronze medal for $22,475. This result follows last week’s second-place finish and their victory in the previous week’s tournament. Micheal ‘mczhang’ Zhang secured the win for $50,375 with‘ABOUDIABY2’ claiming $34,100 in second.

‘LeoMattosAK’ was the biggest earner on the client after defeating a field of 2,090 players to win the partypoker $215 Super Sunday $500k Gtd Championship Event and its first-place prize of $83,500.

‘Echomaus’ eliminated former Sunday Million champion ‘Aldeberan90’ after a heads-up battle to secure the $1,050 Super Sunday Big Bounty Hunter title and $32,883. It was also back-to-back final tables for ‘Aldeberan90’ in this event after they finished in fifth-place last Sunday.

Finally, a shoutout goes to ‘maniakboy’ who finished in seventh and eighth-place in the $2,600 Sunday Major Super High Roller and $1,050 Super Sunday Big Bounty Hunterrespectively.
