After almost nine hours of play, Mexico's "SteveyBG" won the XL Blizzard #16 - $250,000 High Roller for $63,697. The event attracted 118 players for a little overlay and a total prize pool of $250,000.

Some of the best tournament players in the poker world registered to the event, and well-known pros like Ole "olekonjole" Schemion, Martin "MJacobson888" Jacobson, Simon "Isildur1337x" Mattsson had a go at the most expensive tournament of the XL Blizzard series, but all without the necessary luck to make a deep run.

Just twelve places were paid in this tournament and it was Netherlands' "InJeBakkes" who felt in 13th place after losing a coin flip with pocket threes against ace-king. After that, "pekojizonno", "Whyfloatme" and "DosPoochies" missed out on the final table. The eventual final table was, however, by no means lacking household names.

Parker "888tonkaaaa" Talbot was one of them, but he was eliminated in ninth place ($7,500). Fabricio "DrMiKee" Gonzalez was down to eight big blinds and he shoved with {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}. Ben "jenbizzIe" Jones made the call with pocket sevens and held, eliminating Gonzalez in eighth place for $8,750. After that, Jones was eliminated in seventh place ($10,625) after shoving pocket tens in pocket queens.

Thirty minutes later, "summuNNN" defended his big blind against a raise from "OINKOinkOink" and flopped top pair with {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts} on {7-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Unfortunately for him, the German had pocket aces and made an easy call when the Brit moved in. No help for "summuNNN", who ended in sixth place for $13,125.

Ukraine's "yarik1903" won an event on Monday, but couldn't close the deal in the $2,100 High Roller. The Ukrainian ended up all in with {A-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} against the {A-Spades}{K-Hearts} of "aIderfaIder" and lost the hand, ending this event in fifth place for $17,500. "aIderfaIder" was second in chips with four remaining, but still managed to bust in fourth place for $23,750. The British player called all in with {6-Spades}{6-Clubs} but was facing pocket tens from "SteveyBG". The board came {10-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{5-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, eliminating the Brit.

With three left, Sebastian "p000cket000" Sikorski moved all in from the small blind with {J-Spades}{3-Spades} and received a call from "OINKOinkOink" in the big blind with {A-Hearts}{7-Clubs}. The German regular won the hand to bust Sikorski in third place for $35,000. The two final players made a deal before their heads-up and after that, it was Mexico's "SteveyBG" who got the title and first prize of $63,697.

With that, the Mexican player stopped "OlNKOinkOink" from his second title of the day. But still, the German had an amazing runner up finish for $51,303.
