Germany’s Dennis Volz became the third new winner of the GGMillion$ weekly SHR in as many weeks, last night adding $327,240 and the GGPoker accolade to his 7-figure WSOP online bracelet win.
The $10,300 buy-in tournament drew in 161 entries, with the fin al table livestreamed as usual with Jeff Gross calling the action. This week he had Michael Jozoff in the commentary booth with him.
The remaining nine finalists had locked up close to $50k, with a few new faces among the contenders. Brazil usually has someone running deep, this time Iago Savino, with “FilthyTriple” from Poland the only anonymous account at the table.
Frank and Shcherbakov were the shortest stack, but their order was reversed on the first hand when Frank found aces and doubled through Dimov’s pocket 10s. Volz and young Italian pro Enrico Camosci were also now in the danger zone.
Volz, though, was the one to break the trend of short stacks busting, accounting for both Dimov and Camosci to take the chip lead, the former’s river bluff shove with a busted flush and gutshot picked off by the German…
The other remaining German, Martin Finger, saw his stack disappear in consecutive hands, finally running into big slick and two aces on the flop to end his run in 5th for $123,688.
Brazil’s Iago Savino, a head coach for the Never Standard Team, decided to squeeze from the small blind against chip leader Volz’s button open, but it backfired spectacularly…
Volz: K♠ K♣
Savino: A♣ 9♦
Flop: 8♠ Q♥ 6♠
Turn: 4♥
River: J♦
That left three players, all rather evenly stacked and including the anonymous “Filthy Triple” from Poland, who had secured a $200k+ payday.
It wouldn’t be more than that, though, as Frenchman Jeremie Zouari flopped a set and turned a boat to send the Polish player out in 3rd, leaving him self heads-up against Volz, who was playing under the Mexican flag.
Jozoff in the commentary was less than impressed by the standard of the heads-up battle, claiming both players were “playing too tight for 10 big blinds”.
Eventually they got it in, and it took a rivered jack to get Volz over the line…
With that, Volz had added a GGMillion$ SHR title to his WSOP Online bracelet from September, which saw him defeat Brazilian José Eduardo Ferreira heads-up for the Millionaire Maker title and $1,287,142.
