The 2021 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Online continued Saturday with Event #10: $333 No-Limit Hold'em, which drew 986 players who rebought 531 times. The 1,517-entry field resulted in a $455,100 prize pool, and after 11 hours of play, it was Michael "njnj17" Leib coming out on top to capture an $81,644.94 top prize and his first gold bracelet.

Leib’s win came four days after he made a deep run in Event #6: $2,000 No-Limit Hold'em, which was good for $5,695. The win was far and away the biggest of Leib’s career as he has $27,797 in prior WSOP cashes and $14,865 in live earnings according to The Hendon Mob.

Final Table Action

Early on at the final table, George "gkon86" Konstantoulakis ran a bluff but got snapped off by Robert "LuckyLuch11" Aronowitz, and then Leib won a big pot with ace-queen against the pocket nines of Michael “MMenz08816” Menzer and eights of Vinny “Vinnyj88” John, who bowed out in eighth and seventh place respectively.

Mijael “Diaper_money” Meza exited out in sixth place when their ace-ten was outdrawn on the river by the queen-jack of Aronowitz, and then Michael “helionic” Dyer, who finished third in the 2018 WSOP Main Event for $3.75 million, ran ace-nine into Leib’s Big Slick to fall in fifth place.

Dan “oiltrader513” Shak exited in fourth place when his ace-six suited failed to overcome the pocket sevens of Leib, and then Aronowitz saw his queen-six hold against queen-four to dispatch Richard “3ofspade” Bruner in third place.

Dan Shak
Dan Shak came a few spots shy of winning his first bracelet.

Heads-up play began with the final two players dead even in chips, but a set-over-two-pair hand benefitting Leib gave him a monster lead. Not long after, Aronowitz, a social studies teacher from New York playing from Borgata in Atlantic City, committed his short stack with a gutshot straight draw but failed to get there against middle pair.

The 2021 WSOP Online continues on Sunday with Event #11: $400 NLH Ultra Deepstack. PokerNews will be live reporting and streaming the action, so be sure to join us then.

Set over Two-Pair Puts Leib on the Verge

Level 41 : 120,000/240,000, 30,000 ante

Michael "njnj17" Leib raised from the button and was called by Robert "LuckyLuch11" Aronowitz.

The flop came the {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{3-Spades}. There was a bet and call to swell the pot a bit more.

The turn came the {4-Diamonds}. Leib bet 755,000. Aronowitz raised to 1,900,000. Leib took his time before three-bet jamming all in which Aronowitz called.

It was a cooler as Leib had the {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} for a set over the {k-Clubs}{4-Hearts} of Aronowitz. The river came the {5-Spades} and Leib was on the doorstep of a bracelet. However, Aronowitz gathered a couple of small doubles after to give himself a fighting chance.
