The Festival Online 888poker

The Festival Online series is running at 888poker, and there is no doubt that "shashOs21" will look back on the series with fond memories even if they do not cash in any of the remaining events.

"shashOs21" was one of 1,088 entrants in Event #31 Mystery Bounty, a $150,000 guaranteed affair that ultimately paid out $163,200. The champion elect not only navigated their way to the eight-handed final table but did so having captured the $15,000 top bounty, meaning they were guaranteed a healthy return on their $160 investment regardless of their finishing position at the final table.

As it happens, the Cypriot came out on top and walked away with a total prize worth $32,066, more than double what "ivanmfilho" took home for their second-place finish!

The final table action started with a bang and a double elimination. Ten minutes after play began, "Scholomance" open-shoved for 14 big blinds with pocket nines, "bringiton405" called off their 13.3 big blinds with ace-king, before "ivanmfilho" called from the small blind with pocket queens, covering both at-risk players. The queens held, and two players headed to the rail.

"cunsy15" sat down at the final table as the chip leader, but nothing went their way, and they had to make do with a sixth-place finish worth $5,242. "cunsy15" dropped to only four big blinds after backing into top pair on the river and calling a shove made by "OlaColaMosa" who had turned trip sevens. The last of "cunsy14"'s chips went in with ace-eight, ultimately losing to the jack-five of "OlaColaMosa."

The final five became four when "nuncanemvi" ripped in their last six big blinds with king-jack and lost to the lowly eight-four of chip leader "ivanmfilho" courtesy of a four on the flop.

"WomenAreGood" crashed out in fourth at the hands of the hot-running "ivanmfilho." From the button, "ivanmfilho" opened to 2.3 big blinds before instantly calling the 19.5 big blind all-in shove from "WomenAreGood." Why was the call instantaneous? Because "ivanmfilho" held pocket aces. Those aces crushed the all-in player's dominated ace-nine, and the tournament was suddenly down to only three.

Three-handed play lasted a mere five minutes, ending when "OlaColaMosa" jammed for six big blinds on the button with pocket fives and lost a flip to "ivanmfilho," who held ace-queen.

"ivanmfilho" started the one-on-one battle against "shashOs21" with a seemingly unsurmountable 126.6 big blind to 9.4 big blind advantage. However, nothing is guaranteed in poker tournaments until you have all of the chips in play in your stack.

"shashOs21" doubled on the first hand with ace-king versus ace-queen, but that saw their stack dwindle again, unable to dent their opponent's colossal stack.

The ace-five of "shashOs21" cracked the pocket kings of "ivanmfilho" and most things went their way from then on.

The final hand took place during the 41st level of the tournament and started with a min-raise from "shashOs21" with king-eight of diamonds, a three-bet to 7.1 big blinds from "ivanmfilho" with ace-eight offsuit, and a call.

A flop reading four-six-king rainbow saw "ivanmfilho" lead for 4.8 big blinds, which "shashOs21" called. "ivanmfilho" checked when an eight landed on the river before moving all-in for 19.8 big blinds in total after "shashOs21" bet 12 big blinds. "shashOs21" called with their two pair, which held as an offsuit seven completed the community cards.
