ACR Poker’s Venom delivered Action
As noted earlier this week, United Kingdom player "BALDOUS" enjoyed an incredible run in the NLH Venom, capturing the two biggest bounties of the tournament. Despite scooping the top prizes, he was unable to finish the job, and in the end another player stepped in and stole the spotlight.
The Dual Mystery Bounty Venoms on Americas Cardroom wrapped up Tuesday night, producing major results in both formats. The $8 million guaranteed No-Limit Hold’em Venom delivered a record-setting turnout, while the $2 million guaranteed PLO edition also surpassed its guarantee.
The $2,650 NLH event attracted 3,673 entries, generating a total prize pool of $9,182,500. A massive $4,591,250 of that amount was allocated to mystery bounties, making it the largest Mystery Bounty Venom held to date.
The tournament concluded with a three-way deal at the final table, with Malta’s "MatasSembolas" officially taking first place for $630,328 in prize money and $728,281 overall including bounties. Although he didn’t claim the title, UK player "BALDOUS" finished with the biggest total payout after hitting the $500,000 top mystery bounty and an additional $100,000 bounty. Alongside $510,378 in prize money, "BALDOUS" closed the event with a combined haul of $1,240,310.
