Bahamas Poker Tournament 2019 Results 6,0/10 2530 reviews

Because I live in a place devoid of both brick-and-mortar poker rooms and (legal, regulated) online poker, I do not play much poker these days. When I did play frequently, one of the highlights of my poker life was when my boss bought me into a $100 re-buy tournament that our site (the former parent of this site) sponsored. I proceeded to bust him and use his original buy-in plus re-buys to go on and finish third for around $3,000. I was freerolling the entire time, so I was generally quite relaxed and it felt great to go home with such a nice wad of Benjamins. I cannot imagine, though, what it must feel like for the two players at the final table of the $25,000 PokerStars Players Championship (PSPC) in the Bahamas who were awarded entries to the tournament via Platinum Pass. Holy shit, what a freeroll.

Marc Rivera, sitting in second place going into the final table with 10.350 million chips, and Ramon Colillas, in fifth place with 8.300 million, both won Platinum Passes from PokerStars over the course of the last twelve months, prize packages which included the $25,000 buy-in and travel expenses. Rivera won his in a $600 buy-in tournament, while Colillas earned his by earning the most points on the Spain live tour leaderboard.

Now they are both guaranteed half a million dollars and are very, very live for the $5.1 million first prize.

Rivera has a bit over $300,000 in live tournament winnings, while Colillas has less than $11,000, according to the HendonMob.com. This is life-changing money for guys like them and again, they are on total freerolls.

Rivera said it was actually a fairly easy road all day for him, with only one point where his stack took any real dip.

The poker community is on its way down to the Bahamas for the 2019 PokerStars PCA, which includes the inaugural $25,000 buy-in PSPC, an $8 million guaranteed tournament. The final table of the 2019 PokerStars Players Championship (PSPC) is ready to go with Scott Baumstein maintaining the lead with 10.725 million chips. Poker Legislation Poker Tournaments.

It should be a hell of a battle on Thursday at the eight-handed final table. The chip leader is Scott Baumstein – who also lead going into Wednesday – with 10.725 million chips, barely more than Rivera. Between those two and Colillas are Julien Martini (8.600 million) and Day 2 chip leader Farid Jattin (8.525 million), so as you can see by the numbers, it is a really tight race. I fully expect chip positions to change frequently on Thursday.

I find it interesting that the in addition to Baumstein and Jattin, Day 1 chip leader Talal Shakerchi is still in it (5.500 million chips). It is not often you see so many day-end chip leaders at the final table of a large event, especially when two of them were early day leaders.

Baumstein almost didn’t make it this far. During Level 28, he raised for 225,000 pre-flop with A-T, after which Florian Duta re-raised to 775,000. Baumstein then shoved for 4.410 million, perhaps surprised when Duta called him after a little thought. Seeing that Duta had Jacks, Baumstein prepared to leave, but he flopped one of the remaining three Aces to escape and double-up.

Some of the world’s best poker tournament players are currently sunning themselves in The Bahamas where the 2019 partypoker LIVE Caribbean Poker Party is taking place. Poker Central’s first foray into The Bahamas is a $250,000 Super High Roller Bowl that has reached its final table of eight.

8	Erik Seidel	United States	885,000

The eight-handed final table of the $250,000 Super High Roller Bowl has been reached after the 51 entrants were whittled down over the course of two days.

With only eight places paid and the min-cash weighing in at $510,000, nobody wanted to be the unfortunate soul who burst the money bubble. Someone has to be that person and it was Wai Kin Yong who finished in ninth place.

Yong raised to 55,000 with ace-seven of spades from the button and Seth Davies called from the big blind. Davis checked the four-three-ace flop that showed two diamonds. Yong bet 60,000 then called Davies check-raise to 170,000. Davies then moved all in on the six of spades turn and Yong called off his last 390,000 chips. Davies showed jack-five of diamonds before the nine of diamonds on the river completed his flush.

That hand gifted Davies the chip lead going into the final table on November 18th. A fifth-place finish or higher would net Davies his first seven-figure prize.

Joining Davies at the final table is partypoker’s Jason Koon who is less than 200,000 chips behind Davies in the chip counts. They'll battle it out with Daniel Dvoress, Justin Bonomo, Steve O’Dwyer, Kathy Lehne, Wai Leong Chan, and Erik Seidel. Lehne is looking to become the first female champion of a Super High Roller Bowl event.
