Germany��s ��pappadogg�� emerged victorious from the PokerStars Sunday 500 after besting a star-studded final table that would not have looked out of place in a tournament of ten times the $530 buy-in.
First to bust from the final table was the former World Series of Poker Main Event champion Martin Jacobson, who collected $3,716. Jacobson was followed to the rail by the United Kingdom��s ��Kashmir_uzi�� and Brazil��s ��MrVibora��.
The Netherlands�� Joris ��BillLewinsky�� Ruijs fell in sixth-place before Sam Grafton fell in fifth-place. The talented Canadian Sebastian Sikorski, known as ��p0cket00,�� crashed out in fourth-place and the UK��s ��OLDWOLF133�� exited in third-place to send the tournament into the heads-up stage.
Matthew ��mjw006�� Wakeman, an Australian now living in Canada, and Germany��s ��pappadogg�� struck a deal to make the payouts more shallow. Wakeman collected $37,434 for his second-place finish, almost $5,000 more than the original payout. This left pappadogg to bank $39,851 and the title of champion.
