"3AHYDA" Goes Wire-to-Wire to Win the 888poker XL Autumn Series $162 Mystery Bounty
Level 45
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 31,250 ante
“3AHYDA” was already guaranteed to be the biggest winner in the 888poker XL Autumn Series $162 Mystery Bounty even before the final table. The Mexican player was the lucky one to pull the $20,000 envelope yesterday.
But their journey wasn’t done there, and it ended with “3AHYDA” holding every chip in play after defeating “SuiC1deKin9” heads-up to win the title and $15,400 top prize.
“3AHYDA” more than tripled their previous highest cash with the $36,886 total they earned on the virtual felt today. They won $10,000 for finishing second in a $1,000 event on 888poker in July 2022, and won a mystery bounty tournament in April for $3,719. But not even those two scores came close to matching what they pulled off today.

Final Table action
“3AHYDA” began the final table as the chip leader with 3,172,818 when play resumed at 7 p.m. GMT. “Hvalavam” was the short stack but cracked “Bartu79”’s set to double up early. “Hvalavam” then flopped a set on “Bartu79,” and no miracles arrived this time as “Bartu79” was sent to the rail in eighth place.
The two players who started the day at the top of the counts then tangled in a massive pot. Both “3AHYDA” and “SuiC1deKin9” hit a pair of kings, but “SuiC1deKin9” won the pot and secured a double up with a queen-kicker to knock “3AHYDA" from atop the leaderboard.
Swedish Twitch streamer Simon “Snygren” Nygren then busted “Hvalavam” in seventh when the short stack shoved for around 1,200,000 with ace-seven but ran into ace-ten. Shortly after, “SuiC1deKin9” hit trips to knock out “8Packed” in sixth place.
“3AHYDA” began their comeback by eliminating “Svarozhits” in fifth place, spiking an ace on the river to crack pocket jacks. “3AHYDA” and “Con88” then got involved in a raising war on a nine-high flop that ended when “3AHYDA” had their last 1,845,015 in the middle with a pair of kings and “Con88” showed down jack-nine. “Con88” couldn’t improve on the turn and river as “3AHYDA” doubled up.
“Con88” was left on an extreme short stack and was eliminated by “SuiC1deKin9” the next hand. Nygren then doubled up off “SuiC1deKin9” three times to jump back into contention as “3AHYDA” opened a big lead over his two opponents during three-handed play.
“SuiC1deKin9” was all in for 1,738,341 with ace-eight against “3AHYDA”’s king-jack as the flop brought a king, but “SuiC1deKin9” made a running straight to stay alive. Nygren wouldn’t have the same luck after calling off their last 2,035,704 with ace-seven. “3AHYDA” had nine-eight and flopped trip eights to bust Nygren in third place.
“3AHYDA” led 12,310,318 to 3,121,682 at the start of heads-up and didn’t wait long before widening the lead. They made a pot-sized bet of 1,478,000 on the river and “SuiC1deKin9” called only for “3AHYDA” to show a rivered two pair. “SuiC1deKin9” cracked a flopped set with a turned straight to double up, but was knocked back down to just over 2,000,000 when they got their last chips in with king-ten.
“3AHYDA” had ace-four as the flop brought a king to give “SuiC1deKin9” the lead. The turn, though, was an ace and “3AHYDA” took the lead. A safe river secured the title for “3AHYDA” after a wire-to-wire final table performance.
The XL Autumn Series on 888poker concludes next week with the $250 Mystery Bounty Main Event, featuring a $500,000 guaranteed prize pool. Starting flights take place up to October 2, with the series ending on October 3 with the crowning of a champion.
PokerNews will be back providing live updates in a week’s time, but for now, it was “3AHYDA” who had the tournament of their lifetime here today.
