Derek "pompii" Sudell Wins BetMGM New Jersey Championship ($59,975); ��Javierleonor�� Victorious in Phase Event
The BetMGM Poker Online Championships concluded in New Jersey with the $1,000 Championship. The tournament attracted 181 entrants who generated a $171,950 prize pool. However, given it was a $250K GTD tournament the field enjoyed a $78,050 overlay!
The top 24 players made the money with a min-cash being worth $2,330, while $59,975 awaited the winner. The tournament was structured to last two days, so after Stanton "Stonniepokes" Tentnowski bubbled in 25th place, the tournament went on an overnight break.
At that point, Alex "Hashtag_Hashtag" Rocha had the big stack with 1,620,642, which was just slightly ahead of the 1,605,451 held by ��Minutz��. Others with decent stacks were Derek "pompii" Sudell (1,590,281), Ryan "Whosyourdoddy" Dodd (786,016), and Drew "maniacalmonk" O'Connell (533,883), just to name a few. On the other end of the spectrum, Dan ��mj23style�� Sewnig was the short stack with 223,748.
Sewnig managed to ladder up a bit to 20th place for $2,582.50, while Rocha��s lead only took him to 11th place for $4,000, which was a bit better than the 13th-place finish of ��Minutz�� for $3,125. Meanwhile, both Dodd and Sudell used their big stacks to go deep with the former, who had already won two titles in the series, taking fourth place for $22,125, and the latter going all the way to win the tournament for $59,975.
