The marquee occasion of this year’s SHRB Online series ran over the training course of two days, June 1-2. The initial saw the area tightened to just 13 players, with Ali Imsirovic holding the chip lead when play finished. It took control of two hours for the area to be narrowed down to the last table, but the final eight would certainly not all make the cash. Orpen Kisacikoglu was ultimately knocked out on the money bubble when he ran ADiamond SuitKHeart Suit into the KSpade SuitKDiamond Suit of two-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Michael Addamo. Kisacikoglu stopped working to improve and his removal secured at the very least a $212,500 cash advance for the various other seven at the virtual table.

He ultimately got his last chips in with ADiamond SuitKClub Suit up against the 10Spade Suit10Heart Suit of Bonomo. The pocket pair held up and Shak’s run came to an end in fifth place ($325,000).

The next major all-in confrontation also involved a preflop race with a pocket pair up against A-K.

Peters more or less committed himself preflop with AClub Suit5Diamond Suit, raising to 900,000 from the button and leaving himself just 225,000 behind. Addamo called with 10Heart Suit10Club Suit and then lead out for the rest of Peters chips after the flood came down 7Diamond Suit6Heart Suit5Heart Suit. Peters called and was in need of an ace or a five. The QSpade Suit turn and 3Diamond Suit sealed his fate. Peters was awarded $762,500 for his third-place showing.
