The 12th day of the PokerStars SCOOP saw two of PokerStars’ in house professionals, Daniel Alaei and Robert Mizrachi fall just short of the title in event #28. The two players finished 4th and 5th respectively, as the three remaining players, McMang, PedroBar and GlassOfBeer, struck a three-way deal at the top. McMang ended up with the win and the Champion’s title, but because of the deal, he only pocketed $85,435.
The $3,000+$15 event attracted 133 registrants. The prize-pool was a massive $399,000. The three way deal at the top meant that nobody would take home a 6-figure prize in this one, or in any of the other
PokerStars SCOOP tournaments of Day 12.
The medium buy-in level of the same event drew a starting field of 618 players. The buy-in was $300+$20 only in this one, and the registrants generated a prize-pool of $185,400. Loooser17 won this event, taking home $3,226. No deals were made in this poker tournament.
The low buy-in version of the event saw a massive starting field of 3,138 belly up to the virtual tables. The biggest chunk of the $94,140 prize-pool was divided among the top 3 finishers: Beckersen81, pocket22s, and mflippy each took home a little over $10k.
Sebastian Ruthenberg played in this poker tournament too: he finished 29th for a reward of $376.
Event #30 was a $1,000+$50 PLO Hi/Lo tournament, to which 347 players registered. Gibralter11 won this one, taking home $67,144 after a final stretch which saw no high-level deals. 1016 finished 2nd for $50k and Jacob Spelman finished 3rd for $38,170.
Stuart Patterson finished 17th for a little over $3.4k.
The medium buy-in version of the poker tournament attracted 2,041 registrants. Coughing up a buy-in of $100+$9 each, these players combined for a prize-pool of $204k. Rich_Fish won the
poker tournament, taking home $27.7k after a three-way deal with second place finisher clunged and third place finisher Henrique Pinho. A notable finish was that of John Racener, who picked up $867 for his 16th place.
The low buy-in version of event #30 was a true
online poker fiesta, for which no fewer than 7,017 players shoved up, combining $10+$1 buy-ins for a total prize-pool of $75k.
KlozIInPray won the tournament for $11,250. No deals were made in this event.
