Andrew “SupaJah” Horinov starts streaming live on Twitch…
Shortly before the bubble, VIP-Grinders Russia head Andrew “SupaJah” Horinow started streaming live on Twitch.
VIP-Grinders.ru boss Andrew “SupaJah” Horinov won the Super Tuesday for $70k while streaming live on Twitch!
At that time he was second in chips and felt that this could be his tournament, but then he lost a huge pot against NOBBSY_8.
On a board of Qc-7h-5h-Jh Andrew had the nuts on the turn with Ah-6h and a lot of chips were already in the middle. However, on the river Jc the board paired and his opponent went all-in. Horinov called just to get shown Pocket Queens for the nut full house.
After that hand “SupaJah” dropped in the chipcount, but he fought back. With 18 players left he took over the chiplead.
Top Pros Sergio “zcedrick” Aido (18th), Luke “LFMagic” Fields and Twitch legend Parker “tonkaaaa” Talbot (13th) busted afterwards. German online grinder Pascal “Päffchen” Hartmann (10th) also hit the rails before the final table was reached.
Here are the chipcounts at the beginning of the final table:
Seat 1: SiiliSuhonen (Finland) — 534,570
Seat 2: Keiruja (United Kingdom) — 1,103,214
Seat 3: Kent “ForzaVaxholm” Lundmark (Sweden) — 847,615
Seat 4: NOBBSY_8 (Australia) — 569,228
Seat 5: droulis9 (Cyprus) — 565,824
Seat 6: CrownUpGay (United Kingdom) — 688,462
Seat 7: SupaJah (Russia) — 2,808,499
Seat 8: Shashank “felter1989” Jain (India) — 1,456,937
Seat 9: edudrake1987 (Brazil) — 1,075,651
…and wins the Super Tuesday live on Twitch for $69,955!
Andrew came as massive chipleader to the final table. With 4 players left he already held more than 50% of all chips in play!
At the beginning of Heads-Up play Andrew still had the lead with 5,803,392 chips to droulis9’s 3,846,608. droulis9 is a very accomplished online player, so it was still anybody’s game.
Even EPT Champion Kent Lundmark couldn’t stop SupaJah!
Not for long so as Supajah dominated right from the start and pulled away until he had a more than 4 to 1 chiplead, when heads-up play began.
The last hand proved to be spectacular: Andrew raised at Blinds of 25k/50k to 100,000 from the button holding Pocket Sevens. Droulis9 then pushed all-in from the big blind for 1.5 million and A5o. The flop A-3-A brought him trips, but on the turn a seven hit to make SupaJah a full house.
After a blank on the river VIP-Grinders Russia Head Andrew “Supajah” Horinov won the Super Tuesday for $69,954.54!
Big Congratulations from the whole VIP-Grinders Team for this great victory!
