KO Series Day 3 Recap
KO Series #13-HR: $100K Gtd 8-Max Fast
- Buy-in: $1,050
- Entrants: 145
- Prize pool: $147,900
- Places paid: 20
A field of 145 players battled to finish in the top 20 of the KO Series #13-HR: $100K Gtd 8-Max Fast event so they could get their hands on the lion’s share of the $147,900 prize pool, picking up bounty payments along the way.
By the time the eight-handed final table was set, nobody would walk away with less than $2,325 from the main prize pool, and at least $1,625 worth of bounties to boot.
Only two players collected more bounties than the eventual champion. “Paulnew07” of Malta got their hands on $5,923 from the bounty prize pool in addition to their $9,303 third-place prize.
Runner-up “JimyTransaction” of Costa Rica was the other big bounty winner, scooping $7,056 worth of scalps in addition to their $12,785 second-place prize.
The champion was Finland’s “rdcrsnn” who walked away with the $12,800 top prize plus a cool $18,236 worth of bounties, a figure so high thanks to them securing their own bounty by being the last player standing. $31,036 for a few hours playing poker is not bad work if you can get it.
