Brazil’s Rodrigo Seiji Sirichuk scooped the big one on GGPoker last night, defeating Roman Romanovskyi heads-up to lift the GGMillion$ Super High Roller title and a monster $392,293 payday.
Seiji and Romanovskyi were among 196 runners who set out on Sunday and by the time the final table on Tuesday night came around, the remaining nine had locked up $56,343 each from the $1.96million prizepool.
It was, as usual, a table of absolute highstakes MTT crushers, with Michael Addamo and Bryn Kenney looking to spin up the shortest stacks. Sirichuk’s countryman, Bruno Volkmann, was rocking the big stack.
The anonymous “kolayruss1978”, however, was first to fall almost as soon as play commenced, a cooler flop sending him to the rail…
kolayruss1978: K♥ K♣
Rodrigo Sirichuk: A♥ K♠
Flop: 6♦ A♦ 5♥
Turn: 4♠
River: Q♦
For those looking to better understand the play of online elite, the GGPoker YouTube channel streams the final table, with Jeff Gross joined each time by a different guest, this week Daniel Weinand.
The duo explained Michael Addamo’s exit, again at the hands of Sirichuk, when the Brazilian only called with pocket aces after the Aussie legend’s pre-flop reraise.
Addamo couldn’t resist the jam with a gutshot and backdoor but the aces held up, Addamo out in 8th for $71,859.
Kenney, the all-time leading moneywinner in live tournament poker, took the same approach as Addamo, jamming the flop with draws and a small SPR, only to receive the same result. Sirichuk once again the executioner when the board bricked and his ace-high held up.
There seemed to be no stopping the Sirichuk steamroller, pocket queens enough to send Dimitar Danchev to the rail in 6th place for $116,884. Kuznetsov fell to Romanovskyi shortly afterwards, sixes unable to catch 10s after a pre-flop all-in and call.
Volkmann’s end also came at the hands of the Ukrainian pro, a cooler flop spelling disaster as all the chips inevitably went in…
Volkmann: A♠ 8♦
Romanovskyi: 8♠ 8♣
Flop: 4♣ 8♥ A♦
Turn: 9♣
River: 6♦
Dow to just three, and Venezuela’s “lphxneloveschin” held on well as short stack but eventually made a move at the wrong time, a river bluff coming unstuck at the hands of Sirichuk…
Heads-up for the title and $85k difference (no deal-making at GGMillion$!) saw Sirichuk come in with a 5:4 chip lead but it was another cooler that really decided matters:
Sirichuk: 9♦ 8♥
Romanovskyi: 10♦ 7♣
Flop: 7♦ J♦ 10♠
Turn: 6♥
River: Q♣
A flopped straight and clean runout gave Sirichuk his first GGMillion$ title and a sweet $394,407 payday.
