Biggest Buy-in of Series Meets Guarantee, Results in Multi-Way Deal
By far and away the biggest buy-in of the series �� double that of its nearest competitor �� was Event #11-H: $2,000 NLHE (8-Max, High Roller) featuring a $100K guarantee. It did manage to just sneak past the target number with 53 entries for a prize pool of $100,700.
Once the final table of nine was set, players elected to look at the ICM numbers and went with a nine-way chop, a rarely seen phenomenon to be sure. They left a required $2,000 aside for the eventual winner. Forty quick minutes later, "pariszoo11" was the last player standing, earning a total of $16,970 between the deal and the first-place prize.
Four other players managed to hit the five-figure score amount, including runner-up "doubtfire1951" with the biggest number, $17,470. They were joined in that club by Andrew "and_porter" Porter, "iamafarmer", and "dabigquk1", the latter of which managed to make their way into this tourney for just $200. Not to be outdone, "Mr. Robter" earned a ticket through a $100 satellite and managed to make just over 91 times their investment. "CallYourMommy", Simon "Sleevy" Levy and "5BetBill" were the other three players earning a payday.
