PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) Event 9 $2100 action and results.
90 players put up the $2,000+$100 to play the "high" version of SCOOP Event No. 9, Limit Triple Draw 2-7 Lowball. With the guarantee for the tournament at $200,000, that meant a sweet $20,000 overlay in the prize pool. But only the top nine finishers stood to cash in this one, with $60,000 awaiting the champion.
A few other Team PokerStars pros ventured to join Negreanu, including Chad Brown ("ChadBrownPRO"), Greg Raymer ("Fossilman"), Ivan Demidov, Marcin Horecki ("Goral"), Vanessa Rousso ("Lady Maverick"), and Victor Ramdin. Of that group, only Negreanu and Ramdin were still around once the field had been cut in half to 45 players, a little less than four hours into the event.
Here are the final table payouts:
