Ryan “simlSgg” Hagerty Takes Home His Third Title in Four Days!

Ryan Hagerty
Ryan Hagerty

He has done it folks! After winning events on Wednesday and Thursday night, Ryan “simlSgg” Hagerty has made it three wins in four nights, as he just took down the $25,000 Guaranteed 8-Max Event. He will pocket another $6,000 and change for his showing tonight, pushing his overall winning this series to over $20,000.

Hagerty started the final table near the bottom, with Don "dhimp20" Himpele holding the chip lead after busting Katie “KatieStone” Stone in a massive pot just before the final table. The action at the final table would kick off when David "TheKing411" Coleman busted out with pocket tens against the queens of “Edsebo.”

Not long after that, ”CheRalph” was sent to the rail in 7th place. He was followed out the door by “ndirish50”, who was at his second final table in a row after finishing in third place in last night’s 6-Max event. “ndirish50” would have to settle for sixth tonight, after busting to Hagerty, who would have pocket aces for what turned out to be just the first time at this final table.

Jason ”RiverMan” Lawhun was next to leave the final table, after finishing runner up twice already this week. He pulled a triple barrel bluff on Hagerty, but it didn’t work, as he was called by second paid on board.

Start of final table chip leader Don "dhimp20" Himpele was the next player to hit the rail. He would lose nearly all of his chips to "Edsebo", when his Ace-Five couldn't catch up to the Ace-Six of "Edsebo."

Hagerty would then relinquish the chip lead after sending a couple of double ups to his opponent, but he would then bust "Edsebo", before taking down the tournament with a couple of monster hands.

First, Hagerty won a massive flip with pocket jacks against the Ace-Queen of "nunu2018", and then, he would finish the tournament off in style, busting "nunu2018" holding the best hand in Hold'em, pocket aces. Scroll down for a full breakdown of this final table.

Blinds: 40,000/80,000

Just a few hands later, ”nunu2018” moved all in, and it seemed like fate when Ryan “simlSgg” Hagerty woke up with two black aces. He was well ahead of the {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} of "nunu2018", and after the flop of {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, "nunu2018" was drawing dead to runner runner.

The {3-Diamonds} turn was not one of those cards, and ”nunu2018” would have to settle for second place, and $4,224. For the third time this series, Ryan “simlSgg” Hagerty has taken down an event, taking home $6071.48.

Stay tuned for a full recap from this incredible performance from Hagerty!

”Edsebo” Eliminated in 3rd Place ($3,036)

Blinds: 35,000/70,000

All three players traded the chip lead in a few hands, including ”Edsebo”, who went from chip leader to out in just three hands.

The hand that did most of the damage saw ”Edsebo” get his chips in slightly ahead, holding {a-Spades}{4-Spades}. "nunu2018" was the shorter stack, and was at risk holding {k-Spades}{j-Clubs}. The flop of {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} didn't change much, but the {k-Diamonds} on the turn saw "nunu2018" shoot out int othe lead. A brick on the river left "Edsebo" with just seven big blinds.

Those chips would go in on the hand seen here, and while "Edsebo"'s sixes held on the flop and turn, he was counterfeited on the river.
This gives Hagerty the chip lead going into heads up play, as he looks for an incredible third title in four nights.

Don "dhimp20" Himpele Eliminated in 4th Place ($2,323.20)

Blinds: 30,000/60,000

Don "dhimp20" Himpele and "Edsebo" got their short stacks in preflop, with Himpele barely having "Edsebo" covered. "Edsebo" showed {a-Spades}{6-Clubs}, and he was slightly ahead of the {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds} of Himpele.

The flop of {10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts} cut down signifigantly on the chances of a chopped pot, while also giving Himpele four extra outs, ad a three would do now. However, the {9-Hearts} turn and {10-Diamonds} river meant that the six kicker would end up playing, giving "Edsebo" a double up, and leaving Himpele with just two big blinds.

He was all in from the big blind on the next hand, and woud bust to "nunu2018", getting play down to three handed.

Jason ”RiverMan” Lawhun Eliminated in 5th Place ($1,795.20)

Blinds: 25,000/50,000

Jason ”RiverMan” Lawhun raised to 100,000, and Ryan “simlSgg” Hagerty defended his big blind. The flop came down {10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, and Hagerty check called a bet of 150,000 from Lawhun. The {a-Spades} came on the turn, and Hagert check called a bet of 200,000 this time.

The {6-Spades} hit the river, and a third check saw Lawhun shove all in for over 700,000. Hagerty used up about half his time bank before he called with {10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, and the call was a good one, as Lawhun could only muster up {9-Spades}{7-Spades} for nine high.

With that pot, Hagerty is up to over three million, and looks in great shape to take down yet another title,

Blinds: 20,000/40,000

”ndirish50” got his final chips in the middle preflop holding {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}, but unfortunately for him, he was dominated by the {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} of Ryan “simlSgg” Hagerty. ”ndirish50” was drawing dead by the turn, and he will have to settle for sixth place, while Hagerty is still in contention for his third title this series.

"CheRalph" Eliminated in 7th Place ($1,056)

Blinds: 20,000/40,000

”CheRalph” shoved his short stack all in from early position holding {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, but in the big blind, "Edsebo" showed up with {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}. The flop of {j-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs} gave ”CheRalph” some extra outs, but the {3-Spades} turn didn't help, and the {10-Hearts} river imrpoved "Edsebo" to a straight.

With that, just six players remain.

Himpele Busts Stone in Biggest Pot of the Tournament

Blinds: 10,000-20,000

There was another massive all in preflop confrontation from the blinds, and this one saw Don "dhimp20" Himpele bust Katie "KatieStone" Stone. Stone was in the small blind, and got her stack in the middle holding {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. However, she was dominated by Himpele's {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}. The flop of {7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades} missed both players, and a queen on the turn left Stone drawing dead.

This puts Himpele into the chip lead on the bubble of the final tabe.

Stone Busts Sangannagari

Blinds: 10,000/20,000

Sridhar “sri100k” Sangannagari shoved his final 110,000 and change in the middle holding {q-Hearts}{9-Spades}, and he was in about as rough a shape as possible, as Katie "KatieStone" Stone had woke up with pocket queens in the small blind. However, Sangannagari got about as good a flop as he could have asked for, {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{10-Spades}, suddenly giving him an open ended straight draw. The {5-Diamonds} turn and {4-Spades} river brought no further help though, and the queens sent a nice pot over to Stone.
