Ultimate Bet saw 838 entrants in their $200,000 Guarantee on Sunday, February 1, 2009. Unfortunately, this meant that the site had to pay out $32,400 in overlays. The final 11 tables made bank in the tournament including rounders such as Ryan Karp (RyanBluf), Luke Staudenmeier (IWEARGOGGLES) and Alex Kamberis (AJKHoosier1). Scott Ian, Anthrax guitarist and Team UB member, took 14th place in the event.
John “Michaeleahci” Michael, who took down this event previously, wanted to win again. When play got down to three-handed, there was much discussion over both chip chop and placement. In the end, Michael finished third and the top spot went to Matthias Neu, aka Technics.
