Alexander Matveev won event #23 of the World Cup of Cards at Playground Poker Club. He took home CAD $3,845 and the WCC trophy. There were 193 players that turned up to take a shot at the 6-Max $220 No-Limit Bounty tournament with $100 bounties. In the end, Matveev won the tournament after a three-way all in.
When the players were four-handed they made a deal and each took at least $2,500. They decided to keep $1,000 up top. Here is the breakdown of the final table payouts.

Matveev won the final hand, eliminating both Daniel Andelman and Robert Gariepy with aace-queen. Andelman had a weaker ace and Gariepy had pocket tens. Matveev hit the ace on the turn and had both players covered to win the tournament.
Andelman actually entered the final table with only 65,000 and took the chip lead after he tripled and then doubled in the first few hands of final-table play. He eventually finished second when he shoved ace-three on the button and started off the three-way all in pot that ended the tournament.
Pei Wu busted in fourth place with pocket nines against Matveev's ace-king, shortly after the deal was made. Michael Venne finished in fifth and Randy Khalil went out sixth. Khalil busted after he doubled up Gariepy in a huge pot. He flopped an open-ended straight draw and a flush draw against Gariepy's top pair. Gariepy held and Khalil busted shortly after.
The seventh place finisher was Jeffrey Landry. Landry shoved the button with nine-high and got called by king-queen. The queen came on the flop and Landry couldn't catch up. He was the first player eliminated from the final table.
