32 of the best PLO players registered and only four places were paid with a whopping $8,500 min-cash and a staggering $58.052 for the winner.

Hungarian online legend Andras Nemeth better known under his online nick name “probirs” was once again in a class of his own.

Not even one of the most respected PLO player and coaches Fernando “JNandez87” was able to stop him and had to settle for 2nd place.

High Stakes crushers Yuri “theNERDguy” Martins, Gavin “gavz101” Cochrane and Connor Drinan also made the money, while Sami Kelopuro, who won three tournaments in one single night last week, this time wasn’t so lucky and bubbled.
