The SCOOP 54-H: $2,100 PLO [6-Max, Progressive KO] drew 76 entries, building a $152,000 prize pool and attracting a stacked lineup of online Omaha specialists. When the tournament wrapped up, Alexander "joiso" Kostritsyn came out on top, defeating Ole "wizowizo" Schemion heads-up to claim $40,862 and his third career SCOOP title.
The event paid nine players, with seven making the final table. SCOOP regular "king153246" bubbled the tournament, while SCOOP champions "skattefar" and Gavin "gavz101" Cochrane exited before the final table began.
