    Pierre-Luc Bélanger takes the Megastack Turbo

    June 29, 2018December 4, 2018 | Playground

    Event 5 in the June Power Weekend, a $110 Megastack Turbo tournament, ended in a pretty violent manner. When 6 players were left, they agreed to an ICM chop that secured our 6 finalists the following amounts:

    First Name | PrénomLast Name | NomStack | TapisICM payout:
    MarkFitzpatrick1,010,000$8,460
    MarcSaddik683,000$7,397
    LevonDedeyan619,000$7,140
    NickSoller569,000$6,925
    StevenJoudry539,000$6,788

    When that deal was struck, the final table transformed into a royal rumble, and everybody was blindly throwing punches. We did note one of the few hands that were played between the deal and the conclusion.

    Daniel Deshaies: 9 of Hearts 9 of Spades
    Michael Mckinnon: 10 of Diamonds 9 of Diamonds
    Simon Luquette: 5 of Hearts 3 of Spades
    Pierre-Luc Bélanger: King of Hearts 10 of Hearts

    Board: 10 of Clubs 5 of Clubs King of Spades 7 of Diamonds 4 of Hearts

    Everybody was live going into the river, but Pierre-Luc’s flopped 2-pair held, and this win eventually got him the title. He ended up facing Daniel Deshaies in a heads-up match that lasted 1 hand, which is pictured below, and became the victor of a 98-player field. Well done!

    Our Megastack Turbo Champion: Pierre-Luc Bélanger – $1,120


    3 more players secured a 4-figure payday:
