SCOOP 115-M: $1,050 NLHE Main Event started with 3,993 players, but only nine of those have chips in front of them right now. Those nine finalists return to the PokerStars virtual felt from 5:30 p.m. BST on May 29 to compete for a $570,791 top prize.

Brazilian "HenriquinAK" only fired one bullet and has turned that into a tournament-leading 85,497,356 stack. They are guaranteed $38,052 regardless of what happens but should be able to log off tomorrow having captured a six-figure prize. Costa Rica's "59ofspades" (74,641,590) will also fancy their chances of glory, as will third-placed "PokerHorst" (67,588,587).

However, the J♣ came on the river to hand "greatness_m" the win, beating a field of 23,616 players to win $241,169.

"greatness_m" could only watch as "€europictured" got it in with K♦K♣ and was looking good against the A♥10♦ of "ezynow99". However, the board came 6♣6♦J♥7♥A♣ handing "ezynow99" the double and leaving "€uropictured" with just two big blinds. They were eliminated in fourth, with "ezynow99" following soon after.

On a board of 4♠4♥2♣10♦7♣ "greatness_m" shoved on "ezynow99" who eventually called with ace-nine. However, there was no hero call as "greatness_m" had kings and sent their opponent to the rail. Holding a 120 to 26 big blind chip lead heads-up, they made short work of "Japa Bill" heads-up, wrapping up the victory in just over an hour's play.
