Action of the Day
After building up a healthy $74,100 prize pool, a starting field of 78 entrants quickly fell by the wayside. "iConvert13" was looking to make it back-to-back MISCOOP-H titles after shipping Event #26-H: $300 NLHE (Super Tuesday SE) yesterday, but fell in 14th, a few spots shy of a cash. After "Upay4mySushi" busted in the bubble, it was a quick race to the final table. "PimpMyBalance", "Dublistic", "santasworkshop" and "ChaaarliesHouse" all managed to earn a payday before the final table of seven was reached.
"barry20sanders" made their second appearance at an MISCOOP-H final table in as many days, but it was a short lived stay as they couldn't spin the short stack up and fell in seventh. After "Gamestop2012" fell in sixth, play went on for thirty minutes before a flurry of eliminations took place, with "georgejanssen", two-time MICOOP champ "sexycaitlyn", and "J_Voorhees187" all falling in quick fashion.
There seemed to be no love lost between "Owens18853" and "Bout2CrushU" in their heads up duel, as evidenced by many testy exchanges between the two in chat. "Owens18853" started with a 3:1 chip lead in the heads-up duel, but near the end of the one-hour battle, "Bout2CrushU" woke up with a series of premium hands to turn the tide. The final hand saw "Owens18853" rip it in with ace-six, but "Bout2CrushU" lived up to their handle, holding aces and ending the run of "Owens18853" in second.
