Luis "luisdono" Dono Brings Up SCOOP Hat Trick After 5 Buy-Ins
Luis "luisdono" Dono needed 5 buy-ins to take down the SCOOP 52-M: $109 NLHE [Hyper-Turbo], $80K Gtd, but the Portuguese player made his persistence count as he became a 3-time SCOOP champ, pocketing a cool $11,508.30 in the process.
Dono, who outlasted a field of 797 entries, closed out the final table in a little over 20 minutes after defeating German-based "assel007" into 2nd and Canada's "TheDudeH" in first.
With the victory, Dono joins an elite club of 3-time SCOOP winners that includes such luminaries as PokerStars Team Pro Kenny "SpaceyFCB" Hallaert and 2022 World Series of Poker Main Event champion Espen "Hymn2Ninkasi" Jørstad.
