Bracelet Holder Tom Hall Triumphs in 888poker's $100,000 Mystery Bounty
British regular and WSOP bracelet winner Tom Hall took home the title in the main event of the week at 888poker – the $109 buy-in Mystery Bounty tournament.
Thanks to 1,029 entries, the tournament prize pool of $100,000 was slightly exceeded. Hall made the final table with a seventh stack against eight players. But later he managed not only to spin out with 14 BBs, but also to go heads-up with twice the stack of his opponent.
In the "eights" poker room, Hall has a really fabulous nickname –"sheeeeeeeeet".
In the final duel, Tom defeated his compatriot from Great Britain, who had a not so chic nickname, "Surin54321". Interestingly, the heads-up game itself lasted only five minutes, and Hall won with suited connectors, making a flush. For the first place, the champion received $9,581 (together with the bounty).
As for the Top Bounty, $10,000 went to the Mexican "RamboTheDog". His result was 44th place, but the award for the main knockout was undoubtedly a good consolation prize.
