"CleggsOnGG," "audidriver," "Pollan" Take Down Event #9: $500 Warm-Up NLH
Online poker players competing in the BetMGM Online Championships returned to the virtual felt Thursday evening for another exciting tournament — Event #9: 500 Warm-Up No-Limit Hold'em. Between the platforms in Michigan, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, a total of 236 entrants took a shot at the combined $125,000 prize pools.
In Michigan, a $40,000 guaranteed contest, there were 74 entrants registered, all competing for the $13,132 first place prize. Nobody in the field, however, was able to outlast the brilliant play of "Pollan," who took it down following a heads-up victory against "KUNKS27," who received $7,400 for the runner-up finish. The unfortunate bubble was"coNNB," who finished in 11th place, one spot shy of the money.
Out east in New Jersey, the field hit 92 entrants in what was a $50,000 guaranteed tournament. At the end of the night, "audidriver" drove right through the competition all the way to victory and the $15,625 payday that came with it. The runner-up, "alwaysliquid," was paid $8,750 as a consolation prize. Finishing right on the bubble in 13th place was "purity1."
Ryan "Whosyourdoddy" Dodd, the Event #8 winner, took third place for $6,375.
And then in the great state of Pennsylvania, "CleggsOnGG," who is having an outstanding series, was the last player standing among 70 entrants in the $35,000 guaranteed tournament. For that impressive performance, the champion earned $11,490, beating out "gravytrain" heads-up for the title. The runner-up received $6,475, while "StrongGcowboy" was the unfortunate bubble in 11th place.
