Flashback: Anthony Dasbourg Wins Record-Breaking Winamax SISMIX Main Event
Last year in Marrakech, the Winamax SISMIX Main Event solidified itself in the history books as the largest six-max event ever! After 50 levels of play, it was Anthony Dasbourg who bested the record-breaking field of 2,736 entrants to take home the trophy, title and 1,500,000 MAD.
Over a total of four starting flights, a considerable sum of 453 players were lucky enough to return to the tournament floor for Day 2. After an additional 19 levels of play, just 24 remained to battle it out on the felt on the final day.
Dasbourg came in with the chip lead and put on a clinical performance, eliminating four of his six competitors, to cruise to a win that looked like it was going to be his from the very start of proceedings.
“I don’t realize it, I’m still a bit euphoric and savoring the moment right now,” Dasbourg said moments after lifting the trophy. “It's a feeling of fulfillment. I've been playing poker for years to experience moments like this, and now I've made it to the end. It makes a huge difference to be first out of 2,736 players. It's exceptional.”
