We all know that the PokerGO Cup has already started, as we informed you a few days ago about the winner of the first tournament. Today we'll take a look at the other 4 completed tournaments.
The number 2 tournament had a buy-in of $10,100 and produced 89 entries, making the prizepool worth $890,000. Daniel Smiljkovic and Dylan Weisman faced each other in the final heads-up match. Of the pair, Dylan Weisman eventually took home the trophy and the $240,300 prize.
The other 3 tournaments also had a buy-in of $10,100. The tournament with the serial number 3 brought 85 entries and thus a prizepool of $850,000. There was $229,500 waiting for the winner and that amount, along with the trophy, went to Jonathan Little. He defeated Alex Foxen in the final heads-up match.
The fourth tournament had 81 entries and an $810,000 prizepool. Cary Katz and Stoyan Madanzhiev played for $226,800 in the final heads-up. The trophy and full prize money went to Cary Katz in the end.
We got to know the newest champion during the night in Event #5. Here, the entries count reached 83, bringing the prizepool to $830,000. Stephen Chidwick took to the 6 seat final table here as chipleader. At first it all looked like Stephen would be the winner of this tournament, but then everything changed with three player play as Justin Zaki started to come to the fore. He eventually knocked out Stephen, who took home $107,900 for third place. Justin Zaki and Joey Weissman met in the final heads-up match. Zaki took care of that opponent as well, taking home the trophy and $232,400 in prize money.
There are 3 final tournaments to go. One of them, with a buy-in of $15,100, is also already underway and will see its winner today. Another tournament with the same buy-in will also kick off today, and the event will conclude with tournament number 8, which will have a buy-in of $25,200.
