Three-Bet Pot for Leonard

Level 1 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

The action kicked off with a raise to 6,000 by Patrick "pads1161" Leonard and Thomas "MarToMchat" Boivin three-bet to 19,440 from one seat over, which Leonard called. On a {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{3-Hearts} flop, Leonard check-called a bet of 13,374 and they checked the {a-Clubs} on the turn. Leonard bet the {4-Clubs} river for 12,000 and Boivin folded.

Over on the other table, "blooming94" claimed a decent pot against Scott "Aggro Santos" Margereson when both players flopped top pair on a {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} board. Margereson bet the turn and river to get called and turned over {k-Spades}{4-Spades}, which "blooming94" had beat with {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for kings and tens.

Some of the biggest names of the online and live poker circuit are expected in this non-PKO tournament and previous NLHE High Roller champions during the current festival include Andrey "Anjeyyy" Novak, Artur "mararthur1" Martirosyan, and Mustapha lasagnaaammm" Kanit. In fact, Martirosyan already won two SCOOP titles this year as he not only topped SCOOP-17-H: $10,300 NLHE [8-Max, High Roller] but also claimed the title in SCOOP 29-H: $5,200 NLHE [8-Max, Midweek Freeze] to continue his hot streak in 2020.

The registration for this tournament remains open for the first 4h45 of play during which all participants can re-enter up to two times if needed, and the first 18 levels will last 20 minutes each whereas the duration then increases to 30 minutes each thereafter. All players receive 250,000 in chips and a time bank of 60 seconds, for each hour played an additional 10 seconds will be added to the time bank.

A champion won't be crowned tonight as the tournament takes place throughout the next two days and Day 1 will conclude once the money bubble has burst. All survivors then return the following day on May 14th, 2020, as of 1 p.m. EST. Find out who will become the next SCOOP champion right here on PokerNews as we provide updates from start to finish.
