Event recap

Just over three hours of play, the money was in. This led to an even faster and more brutal game with bustouts trending at every table.

Hungary’s “running well” railed Ukraine’s “Gleb 1911” in 11th place with spiking the Jack to dust . This gave “running well” a commanding lead of 113.7 bb entering the final table. The closest challenger was Hong Kong’s “jomud9ahsorjai” with 60 bb. Eventual champion N@pudp6hjas was ranked 7th with 27.6 bb.
