PokerStars WCOOP Day 7: ¡®magiet12¡¯ Wins $100K; Benny Spindler Runs Deep 0001

Day 7 of the World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) at PokerStars saw another six champions named with two big buy-in events and four low buy-in events coming to an end.

The biggest winner of the day was ��magiet12��, who won over $100,000 in the WCOOP-19-H: $1,050+R PLO [6-Max], $300K Gtd.

With only two big buy-in events coming to completion Saturday, Pot-Limit Omaha took center stage with the biggest prize pool of the day. A buy-in of $1,050 is sure to attract some of the worlds best PLO players as the event saw 174 unique entries along with 261 rebuys and 117 double stack add-ons to create a prize pool of $552,000.

The first day ended with the money bubble being popped, meaning the 23 remaining players to start Day 2 were guaranteed to walk away with at least $6,996. The two top stacks to start Day 2 were ��anti-durrr�� and ��omaha4rollz��, who had both made their way over the one million-chip mark.

Final Table Action Begins

As play began at the unofficial seven-handed final table, ��omaha4rollz�� was the clear-cut favorite holding over 2.7 million chips with the next closest competitor having 1.1 million.

Benny ��toweliestar�� Spindler was the first player to leave the official six-handed final table when he shoved on a flop of 7?7?4? holding K?Q?10?4?. ��anti-durrr�� called holding 6?6?5?5? and eliminated the two-time SCOOP champion as the board failed to improve Spindler. Spindler received $27,170 for the sixth-place finish.

��magiet12�� made their first mark on the final table by eliminating ��aabas�� in fifth place for $35,944. ��aabas�� had a dwindling stack and put in the rest of it with A?Q?10?9? against ��magiet12�� who held K?K?4?2?. The final board of J?4?3?4?8? gave ��magiet12�� trip fours for the win.

With a board reading A?10?9?, ��anti-durrr�� decided to make a stand and got in their remaining stack against ��magiet12��. ��anti-durrr�� had a pair with a straight draw holding Q?J?9?8? while ��magiet12�� held A?Q?J?6? for top pair and a flush draw. The 10? on the turn gave "anti-durrr" a straight but completed a flush for ��magiet12�� and the J? on the river sealed ��anti-durrr����s fate eliminating him in fourth place for $47,552.

��omaha4rollz�� Takes Third

When three-handed play began, Farid "SHiiPTHATiSH" Jattin had over half the chips in play with 4.1M to the 1.4M of ��magiet12�� and the 1.1M of ��omaha4rollz����. ��omaha4rollz�� and Jattin clashed when the flop was laid out 6?4?2?. After Jattin check-raised for the equivalent of half of ��omaha4rollz�� stack, ��omaha4rollz�� put in the rest of the chips, which was met with a call by the big stack of Jattin.

��omaha4rollz��: 3?3?2?2?
Jattin:A?Q?J?9?

��omaha4rollz�� had flopped a set with a gut-shot straight draw but needed to fade spades as Jattin had a flush draw. The turn brought the 8? giving Jattin a flush and putting him in the lead. The 10? river was no help for ��omaha4rollz��, who exited in third place for $62,908.

Heads-Up Play

When heads-up play began, Farid "SHiiPTHATiSH" Jattin held a 10-to-1 chip advantage having 6.1M to the 583,639 of ��magiet12��. What seemed to be a sure thing for Jattin quickly took a turn for the worse and ��magiet12�� turned the tides of the heads-up battle to pull to within a two-to-one disadvantage.

The two players then made a deal which would see Jattin lock up $93,134 while ��magiet12�� was guaranteed to walk away with $88,448, leaving $11,740 additional for the eventual winner. That deal also guaranteed that the winner would be getting a payday of more than $100,000.

After ��magiet12�� made a hero call to win a 4.7M-chip pot and take the chip lead, the two players got the rest of the chips into the middle on a flop of 9?2?2? with Jattin holding A?J?10?9? and ��magiet12�� with K?Q?Q?J?. The turn was the Q? giving ��magiet12�� a full house and the 8? on the river made "magiet12"'s storybook comeback complete.

Jattin earned $93,134 after the deal for second place while ��magiet12�� took home $100,188 and the WCOOP title.
