GERMANY’S “ARTSchGamble” WINS SUNDAY MILLION FOR $134K

Another week, another couple of six-figure scores locked up in the $215 SUNDAY MILLION.

Only one player can go all the way in the biggest weekly online tournament, and this Sunday it was Germany’s “ARTSchGamble” who would emerge victorious, outlasting 5,720 opponents to bank a massive $134,333.

That followed a heads-up deal with the UK’s Andy “andyh26” Holman, who secured $106,417 for his runner-up finish. He’s now just shy of $4 million in lifetime online earnings.

Talal Shakerchi

Talal “raidalot” Shakerchi had a deep run in this one, making the final before busting in sixth for $26,301. That score might not be up there with the hedgefund manager and high roller regular’s largest, but it will certainly be satisfying having overcome such a large field.

PokerStars Team Pros Igor Kurganov and Liv Boeree both cashed, finishing 485th ($525) and 896th ($347) respectively.


ALEX “bigfox86” FOXEN WINS THIRD HIGH ROLLER CLUB TITLE

Canada’s Alex “bigfox86” Foxen has been absolutely crushing the High Roller Club of late. This weekend he claimed his third HRC title in a couple of weeks, taking down the $1,050 Daily Warm-Up [8-Max] for $25,578.

Alex Foxen

Foxen almost won a second title on Saturday too, but would have to settle for second in the $1,050 Daily Cooldown [8-Max, Turbo, Progressive KO], along with $9,384.

Here’s a look at Foxen’s High Roller Club results for November and December:

TOURNAMENT DATE POSITION PRIZE

Foxen is now up over the $3 million mark in career online earnings.


HEALTHY SCORES FOR JOAO VIEIRA, IVAN LUCA, ALEX PAPAZIAN

Of course, Foxen wasn’t the only familiar face we saw take down a big tournament this weekend.

Portuguese high roller regular Joao “Naza114” Vieira booked a win in the $2,100 Sunday HR (arguably one of the toughest tournaments on the schedule). For his victory over the 155-strong field, Vieira won $65,069.

Joao Vieira

To give you a taste of the ‘toughness’, the final table included the likes of “bencb789” (4th – $30,124), Niklas “Lena900” Astedt (5th – $23,304), Stephen “stevie444” Chidwick (6th – $18,028), and Scott “Aggro Santos” Margereson (8th – $10,789).

Ivan “Negriin” Luca also claimed a High Roller Club title, and he’d do so in fast fashion, winning the $1,050 Sunday Supersonic [6-Max, Hyper-Turbo] for $51,384 and the kind of daysaver most of us can only dream about.

Ivan Luca

Romania’s Alex “Steakaddict.” Papazian was on the winner’s sheet this weekend too. The EPT12 Grand Final €25K High Roller champion took down the $215 Sunday Warm-Up for $36,151.
