BRAZIL’S “tomnelz1” wins Sunday Million for $110K
Another Milly title for Brazil
There was a big turnout for the $109 Sunday Million yesterday, with 11,480 total entries creating a $1,148,000 prize pool. That purse was split between the top 2,042 players, and while both Fintan “easywithaces” Hand and Benjamin “Spraggy” Spragg both made the cash, they fell in 976th and 1,583rd respectively.
There can only be one winner, and this week the prestige goes to Brazil’s “tomnelz1”. They banked $110,747 for their largest ever cash, in a career that has seen wins in the Bounty Builder $33 ($13K), a Bounty Builder Series title ($12K), and the $11 Mini Sunday Kickoff ($5K).
CHINA’S “zzwwzzwwzz” WINS HRC $2,100 HR
Every week the High Roller Club’s $2,100 Sunday HR proves to be one the toughest tournaments going. Yesterday was no exception, with many of the game’s best in battle.
There were 133 total entries this weekend, and after the bubble burst at 17 players the $266K prize pool was divided amongst them. The big money was at the top of course, and a stacked final table assembled.
Andras “probirs” Nemeth
The top two ranked online tournament players in the world–Niklas “Lena900” Åstedt (#1) and Andras “probirs” Nemeth (#2)–were among them, as were Jonathan “Proudflop” Proudfoot, Ivan “Negriin” Luca, and Joao “Naza114” Vieira.
Ultimately, though, it was China’s “zzwwzzwwzz” who came out on top, adding $55,834 to his or her bankroll. Sunday was a great day overall for the Chinese player, who also finished fourth in the High Roller Club $530 Omania HR for $6,135, and third in the $215 NLO8 Sunday Supersonic for $3,703.
