*reflects a heads-up deal<\/em><\/p>\n

A field of 192 players had gathered at the partypoker tables before late registration slammed shut, meaning $1 million in cold, hard cash was set to distributed among the top 24 finishers. A min-cash was worth $13,300 with a final table appearance boosting this sum to $27,500 while the eventual champion was set to bank more than $200,000.<\/p>\n

\u201cM1ndBl0w\u201d<\/strong> was the first player to bust inside the money, falling in 24th place. Several more players busted before Team partypoker\u2019s Joao \u201cjoaosimaobh\u201d Simao<\/strong><\/a> saw his tournament come to an abrupt end in 13th place, a finish worth $17,200 to our Brazilian superstar.<\/p>\n

High stakes regular \u201cRosenheimCops\u201d<\/strong> burst the final table bubble when they fell in ninth-place for $20,000 and the race for the Big Game freezeout title was well and truly on.<\/p>\n

Eighth-place and $27,500 went to “luckywhale_nuts\u201d<\/strong> who was joined as a spectator by \u201cNikM123\u201d<\/strong> and \u201cGingersrules\u201d<\/strong> who scooped $35,000 and $45,000 respectively. Fifth-place went to the Swedish star \u201cSTORTjavlaGL\u201d<\/strong> who turned their $5,200 investment into $58,000.<\/p>\n

\u201cAussieOsbourne\u201d<\/strong> was the next casualty at the final table, crashing out in fourth-place for a cool $83,000. Heads-up was set when \u201cdonzledurbru\u201d<\/strong> lost their stack to exit in third-place, becoming the first player in the tournament to net six-figures, namely $116,000.<\/p>\n

This set up a heads-up battle between TIMEXCNT and \u201cIluvia71\u201d<\/strong>, the latter having early took down a Christmas Freeze event for more than $40,000<\/a>. The heads-up duo decided to strike a deal, one that saw Iluvia71 walk away with $184,511 and TIMEXCNT the title and a cool $195,788.<\/p>\n
