After a thrilling first freeroll, the results are in – did you make it onto the leaderboard?
The first freeroll of the PokerPlayer Grand Prix 8 played out Monday evening with 152 runners contesting the points awarded to the top 50 and the tournament tickets for the top 20. It was a great showing by half of the PokerPlayer team as well, with PP_Journey getting knocked out in 20th by fellow PokerPlayer PP_Rossy. Re-shoving over the top of what turned out to be Q-10 with A-Q, PP_Journey was pretty happy to see a fishy call with K-10 by PP_Rossy until a King on the flop and another on the turn denied him the treble-up and a 50k pot. PP_Rossy knocked both players out en route to his fifth place finish.
The eventual winner – and first qualifier for the Grand Final – was golly51, who beat Slickgc heads-up to book his seat. SammyJohn is currently top of the leaderboard courtesy of his third place finish and the five-point bounty for knocking out PP_Rossy.
The next freeroll is Wednesday August 7. If you haven’t registered yet, what are you waiting for? Find out how to get involved by clicking here.
