Vladimir Geshkenbein Claims the 2009 PokerStars.net APPT Macau High Rollers Championship!

Geshkenbein maintained the chip lead for the first half of the day, displaying an uber-aggressive style that left other players shaking their heads, and often chipless. When play hit the nine-handed money bubble, however, Geshkenbein hit a dry spell and dropped as low as 300,000 in chips.
Needless to say, he managed to rebound in stunning fashion and once he regained the chip lead, Geshkenbein steamrolled the rest of the final table en route to victory.
For his efforts, the next time Geshkenbein logs into his PokerStars account, he'll find a healthy $266,690 deposit waiting for him.
Congratulations to all of our finalists on a tournament well played.
That concludes our coverage of the Season 3 kickoff event of the APPT here in Macau, from the Grand Lisboa Hotel and Casino.
Until next time, good night and good luck!
