Nick Maimone's Fortunate Streak Leads to GGMillion$ Win for Canada
If the participants of the GGMillion$ final table knew what kind of Canadian luck they would have to face, they would have given all their chips to Nicholas Maimone without any battle.
Yesterday, Fortune's favorite hit all the required outs in a high-roller tournament at GGPoker, taking home the title and $232,516 in prize money.
Key details on the recent GGMillion$:
- Bui-in – $10,300$
- Entries – 107
- Total prize pool – $1,070,000
- ITM zone – 15 places
The Canadian's main upswing occurred in 3-max: Nicholas with pocket 77 pushed pre-flop against Israeli Barak Wisbrod's KK. Seeing a seven and a king on the flop, Maimon didn't give up and beat the higher set, collecting the four of a kind on the river.
In the heads-up, the Canadian also demonstrated all his winning skills. During the final hand, he managed to beat Pavel Plesuv's ready flush (7♠️2♠️ vs K♠️10♣️). Four spade card on the board gave Pavel a runner-up title in the tournament ($181,585). Nick constantly plays at GGPoker and shows confident winning results, and in 2020 he managed to win a World Series bracelet online.
