Then, on June 17 they finished in 34th place in the 8pm Deepstack for $405 for their first flag on the site.
And now, on June 20, they have another cash — and a much bigger one at that. They took down the 1pm Deepstack for $26,491 after beating a field of 888 players.
Yesterday's 8pm Deepstack attracted 303 players and paid out 46 spots. The winner was Michele Alongi who took down $9,475 after defeating Michael Zhang heads-up.
Congratulations to Crystal Galyon who took down yesterday's 4pm PokerNews Daily Deepstack for $18,365 and a new career-best score.
Galyon's previous biggest cash came in November 2023, finishing 18th in a $1,100 WSOP Circuit event in North Carolina for $5,230. The result sees her sit in the top four of the PokerNews Daily Deepstack leaderboard, playing for a seat to the $600 PokerNews Deepstack Championship
