Last year, the first-ever World Series of Poker (WSOP) Paradise Main Event champion was crowned as Germany's Stanislav Zegal took down the $5,000 buy-in event for $2 million and his first WSOP bracelet. The GGPoker qualifier defeated heads-up opponent Michael Sklenicka of Czechia to wrap up a final day that only lasted four hours.
The inaugural WSOP Paradise Main Event at the five-star Atlantis Resort in The Bahamas drew 3,010 players for a prize pool that climbed above the $15 million guarantee. The field included dozens of online qualifiers, including Zegal, who was able to parlay his online poker prowess into a life-altering seven-figure victory.
“I was so lucky, the cards just fell my way all the time," Zegal told PokerNews. "I think I played well too, but obviously (there’s) tons of luck... This is what you call life-changing money, I guess.”

Level 23-24 Highlights
Level 24
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Darren Elias moved all in for 6,850,000 on the button and Pascal Lefrancois called in the small blind.
Darren Elias: A♦K♥ 
Pascal Lefrancois: A♣7♥
Elias had Lefrancois dominated and remained in the lead as the flop came 9♦3♠4♦. The 6♥ turn gave Lefrancois a straight draw, and he spiked the 5♦ on the river to make his straight and send Elias crashing out of the tournament.
Level 24
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
With around 2,000,000 in the pot on a flop of 8♠5♠3♥, Michael Addamo bet 1,100,000 from under the gun and Alisson Piekazewicz came back with a raise to 2,750,000 in the big blind.
Addamo called to see the 7♥ turn, where Piekazewicz bet another 5,200,000. Addamo then moved all in and Piekazewicz, with around 7,000,000 remaining, snap-folded.
Level 24
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Alexander Zubov pushed all in for the second hand in a row, this time for 4,150,000 in middle position. Vladimir Minko asked for a count and called it off from the small blind.
Alexander Zubov: A♠K♦
Vladimir Minko: A♥10♥
Zubov was in a dominating position and the flop of J♦9♣2♣ was clean. The 5♣ and 7♣ runout changed nothing and Zubov scored a double up.
Level 24
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Despite having a large stack earlier in the day, Jonathan Jaffe found himself with just a few big blinds and called off his last 800,000 from the big blind against Jakob Miegel in early position.
Jonathan Jaffe: A♣6♣
Jakob Miegel: A♥10♠
Jaffe called without looking at his cards and had a chuckle saying, "How do I have an ace?"
Although Jaffe hit his ace on the Q♠7♠2♠Q♥A♦ runout, it was unfortunately not good enough as he headed to the exit.
Level 24
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Vadzim Lipauka raised to 800,000 on the button, Frank Funaro moved all in for 4,800,000 in the small blind, and Lipauka snap-called.
Frank Funaro: K♠7♠
Vadzim Lipauka: K♦K♣
Funaro had run into Lipauka's kings and picked up a flush draw going to the river on the J♦10♦4♠10♠ board, but he missed the 5♦ and was sent to the rail.
Level 24
