UBOC ONLINE CHAMPIONSHIP RECAP- EVENTS 16 AND 17

The UBOC Online Championship’s concluding weekend kicked off Friday night with the first of three final Hold’em tourneys. 206 entrants logged on for UBOC 16, a dynamic Deepstack Pot Limit Hold’em 6 MAX tournament.

HOOKEY911 pocketed a $500 bounty for eliminating hostess LIV_BOEREE.

The final table was wide open for the most part with WINNERFF (250,479 in chips), ARE THESE UTZ (248,419), and DSANDS25 (232,124) all evenly matched with HAMAZRIYA3 (119,529), TORREY5 (100,894), and 150383 (78,555) rounding out the pack.

The table saw its first victim when ARE THESE UTZ raised all-in to 192,499 at the Ah-10s-Qs-4h turn while holding 10h-As.

At the showdown TORREY5’s straight topped his two pair and ARE THESE UTZ settled for a $5407.50 sixth place finish.

The winning came to an end for WINNERFFHI when he raised all-in preflop with hooks.  Although he landed a third jack on the turn, DSANDS25’s king flush sent him to the rail.

WINNERFFHI banked $ 7467.50 for his fifth place victory.

Down to fewer than 39K chips, 150383’s number was up a few hands later. 150383 countered DSANDS25’s opening raise by dropping his last 30K chips into the pot.  Although 150383 managed to land a second Ace at the turn, those bullets couldn’t wound DSANDS25 or his two pair.

150383 collected $9527.50 for the 4th place finish.

DSANDS25 continued his domination, forcing HAMAZRIYA3 to counter a series of raises by going all-in pre-flop.  At the showdown, DSANDS25’s pocket fours beached HAMAZRIYA3, who landed the $ 12514.5 third prize, and his ace high,

The remaining players were evenly matched, until DSANDS25 permanently lost his chip lead when TORREY5 made a flush on the river, which easily beat his opponents queens from the board.  With a commanding 748K to 282K chip lead, TORREY5 lured DSANDS25 all-in at the flop.

Thanks to a pair of queens, which easily bested his rival’s ace high, TORREY5 captured the $27810 crown. DSANDS25 earned the $15862 runner-up prize.
