Guillaume Nolet Wins First GG Spring Festival $25K ($1,084,892)
Level 13
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
The first seven-figure payday of the 2021 GG Spring Festival has been granted and it was Guillaume Nolet opening the record-breaking series in style. He defeated Andras Nemeth in Event H-06: $25,500 Sunday Five Million to score the top prize of $1,084,892.
Nemeth had to settle for a consolation prize of $813,554 in the field of 198 entries.
The joint most expensive tournament of the festival came up short of the ambitious $5 million guarantee by just $50,000 and eight of the nine finalists earned six-figure prizes. With so much money on the line, it still only took fewer than 2 1/2 hours to determine a champion.
