Sam Grafton Becomes a PokerStars New Year Series Champion; Reaches Day 2 of Main Event

Sam Grafton

Sam "SamSquid" Grafton is ending the PokerStars New Year Series in hot form. The popular British grinder triumphed in a $530 buy-in No-Limit Hold'em 7-Max PKO event for $44,088 and finds himself in the final 47 of the $5,200 Main Event where $284,374 awaits the eventual champion.

Grafton's victory came in the high edition of the 143rd event of the New Year Series. Some 464 players bought in, resulting in a $232,000 prize pool. The likes of Daniel "SmilleThHero" Smiljkovic, Niklas "Lena900" Astedt, Christian "WATnlos" Rudolph, and Dimitar "KuuL" Danchev reached the money place but fell short of the seven-handed final table.

The two Brazilians who reached the final table were the first two players out of the door. Gabriel "gasdrogba" Schroeder fell in seventh for $4,390 before Marcelo "marceloaziz" Aziz followed his countryman to the rail in sixth, a finish worth $6,090.

Fifth place and the last four-figure haul of the evening went to the Polish sensation Jakub "Olorionek" Michalak, who you may recall took down the ill-fated ISPT Wembley Main Event in 2013.

The eliminations of "DoryanGh" and "Revenge4Dodo," which came with total prizes of $12,205 and $14,923, respectively, sent the tournament into the heads-up stage, where Grafton faced Belarusian "zelvavegas."

Both players locked in $19,755 from the regular prize pool, leaving the huge final bounties to play for. Grafton defeated his final opponent, and captured $24,333 from the bounty prize pool, meaning he took him $44,088 in total. The runner-up headed into the night with $20,559 to show for their efforts.

Grafton finds himself 22nd in chips with 47 players remaining in the $5,200 buy-in edition of the New Year Series Main Event. The tournament is hovering around the bubble as 41 places are paid. Finishing in the money guarantees Grafton and Co. $11,702, but there is $284,374 up top, so none of the remaining players will be happy with the smaller amount.

Veldhuis Banks Another $23,300; Narrowly Misses Out On Fifth Title of the Series

Lex Veldhuis
Lex Veldhuis

Grafton's fellow Team PokerStars teammate, Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis, narrowly missed out on what would have been a fifth title of the series, when he finished second in the festival's $530 edition of the Sunday Cooldown. A field of 389 left a small overlay on the $200,000 guarantee.

Veldhuis looked set to add to his four 2024 New Year Series titles when he found himself heads-up against Brazilian superstar Paulo "paulinhoo00" Brombin. However, it was not meant to be, and Veldhuis had to settle for a second-place finish and a $23,300 consolation prize, leaving Brombin to scoop an impressive $39,604 for his win.

Veldhuis has a golden opportunity to make amends for this runner-up finish because he is deep in the $1,050 Main Event. Only 153 of the 1,538 starters remain in the hunt for the $234,337 top prize, and Veldhuis is 41st in chips.
