POLAND’S “OMGACEACEACE” TAKES DOWN SUNDAY MILLION FOR $143K

We’ll kick things off as we always do on a Monday morning.

The $215 SUNDAY MILLION is PokerStars’ flagship weekly tournament, and as always it attracts huge numbers. This Sunday saw 5,325 total entries, and when all was said and done it was Poland’s “OMGACEACEACE” who came out on top. Following a heads-up battle against Brazil’s “verkannt”, “OMGACEACEACE” banked $143,898 with no deal made. For second, “verkannt” received $100,979.

Team PokerStars Online’s Benjamin “Spraggy” Spragg (at work, above) was the sole representative of the red spade to cash, finishing 361st for $594.


TWO HIGH ROLLER CLUB TITLES FOR DARIO SAMMARTINO

Yesterday was a damn fine day for Italy’s Dario “Secret_M0d3” Sammartino. He not only won two PokerStars tournaments in one day, but they both happened to be High Roller Club events against some of the toughest competition going.

Sammartino’s successful Sunday

His first victory came in the High Roller Club: $530 Sunday 500, $75K Gtd, where he defeated a tough final table including Sweden’s “€urop€an” (2nd for $17,617) and Connor “blanconegro” Drinan (8th for $3,161). For that win, Sammartino banked $23,459.

Then, in what was likely his last buy-in of the night, Sammartino came out on top in the High Roller Club: $1,050 Sunday Supersonic [6-Max, Hyper-Turbo], $100K Gtd, for an additional $35,208. Talal “raidalot” Shakerchi also made that FT (4th for $15,524).


LEX VELDHUIS WINS $109 HYPER FOR $5,282 LIVE ON TWITCH

If you were tuning in to Twitch yesterday, chances are you probably stopped by Lex Veldhuis’s channel at some point.

Nice score for Lex

What you might have missed was Lex taking down a $109 Hyper Turbo for $5,282, defeating a 264-player field.

So, just in case, watch Lex’s winning moment here.


CAIO CALMON WINS ANDRE AKKARI’S PLATINUM PASS ADVENTURE

One of the very last Platinum Passes to be awarded was given out in Brazil over the weekend.

Caio Calmon and Andre Akkari

Caio Calmon, a 24-year-old from Bahia, won Andre Akkari’s Platinum Pass Adventure and will now be heading to the Bahamas in January to play the $25K PokerStars Players Championship.
