Stanton "Stonniepokes" Tentnowski Takes Down partypoker US Nework Players Series Event #4 for $8,580
Stanton "Stonniepokes" Tentnowski became the newest champion of the partypoker US Network Players Series Tuesday night after topping a field of 165 in Event #4: PLO 6-Max to claim the top prize of $8,580.
Featuring a $215 buyin, the tournament generated a total prize pool of $33,000. Over 100 players were already registered by the time play began, a number that would be solid on a Wednesday night even for a No-Limit Hold'em tournament.
That number climbed up to 165 over the two-and-a-half-hour late registration period, and that 165 eventually became just one when Tentnowski defeated Kevin "sofcknsick" Campbell in a heads-up match that capped off a nearly two-hour-long final table.
