*reflects a three-handed deal
The final day began with Team partypoker’s Ludovic Geilich leading 24 hopefuls back into battle. A strong of eliminations, including those of Scott Margereson, Alexandru Papazian, Andras Nemeth, and Martin Zamani, reduced the player count.
Geilich was still going strong at this stage but then his world fell apart. After losing a sizeable pot when William Blais check-raised all-in on the flop in a three-bet pot and he had to fold, Gelich got his stack in with aces against Alex Foxen’s king-jack. Foxen won the hand thanks to the board running out all hearts and he held the jack of hearts. This left Geilich with four big blinds and he busted soon after in 14th place for $65,000.
The likes of former WSOP Main Event champion Ryan Riess, the aforementioned Foxen, Jonathan Kozel, and Oskar Prehm crashed out to set the final table.
Philipp Gruissem was the first casualty of the final table, committing his stack with pocket aces and losing to Hunichen’s sixes thanks to a six on the turn. Gregory Baird then fell at the hands of Hunichen who again hit a set of sixes.
Canada’s Peter Jetten’s shove with king-ten lost to Scott Wellenbach’s pocket queens before Oleg Mandzjuk made a move with suited five-four and lost to the suited ace-eight of Wellenbach with both players improving to a flush.
Blais the busted in fifth-place for $500,000. Blais’ ace-eight was ahead of Hunichen’s queen-ten until a queen landed on the river. This left three players in the Main Event and the trio struck a deal while on an official break. The deal left $100,000 and the trophy for the eventual champion.
Hunichen fell in third when he shoved with ace-three and Van Blarcum called with ace-king. Both players flopped an ace and the board counterfeited Hunichen’s hand and he crashed out in third for $1,097,195.
The chip counts were almost level going into heads-up but Mateos soon started turning the screw. By the time the final hand took place, Van Blarcum held 134,000,000 chips to Mateos’ colossal stack of 814,000,000. Those 134,000,000 chips went into the middle with ten-deuce and Mateos called with jack-nine. A nine on the flop was enough to seal the deal for Mateos who now has $19,423,996 in live tournament winnings thanks in part to the $1,162,805 he locked up in this tournament and the $520,464 he collected for winning the $25,500 MILLIONS Super High Roller a couple of days ago.
Two other tournaments crowned their champions as the 2019 Caribbean Poker Party began drawing to a close.
The $10,300 MILLIONS High Roller Finale, a tournament that saw 205 players buy in, was won by Norbert Szecsi who collected $400,000. Szecsi defeated Ralph Wong heads-up to secure the title, resigning the runner-up to a $260,000 consolation prize.
Others who reached the final table were Matthias Eibinger, Garik Tamasian, Marques De Miranda, Julien Martini, Stephen Chidwick, Jamie Sequeira, and 2019 Poker Masters champion Sam Soverel.

Wai Leong Chan Wins MILLION Super High Roller Finale
Team partypoker pros made up three of the seven in-the-money finishers in the MILLIONS Super High Roller Finale but it was Wai Leong Chan who was the last player standing.
Kristen Bicknell was awarded $75,000 for her seventh-place finish and was joined on the rail by Netherlands’ Rob Hollink whose sixth-place finish yielded $95,000.
Jason Koon crashed out in fifth for $120,000 before Ali Imsirovic ran out of steam in fourth-place and walked away with $150,000. Sean Winter’s third-place finish saw him pad his bankroll with $191,000.
Winter’s exit set up a heads-up battle between Chan and Isaac Haxton and it was the former who took down the tournament. Haxton consoled himself with the $250,000 runner-up prize while Chan banked a cool $380,000.

The sixth edition of poker's annual nosebleed extravaganza has ended, and this time, Daniel Dvoress emerged as champion of the Super High Roller Bowl. Dvoress topped a field of 51 entries for a first-place prize of $4,080,000 at Baha Mar in the Bahamas, hosting the event for the first time as part of the partypoker Caribbean Poker Party.
He had never previously cashed in a SHRB.
The score is by far his biggest cash it vaults him into the top 40 of the all-time tournament money list. He came out on top of a final table that included high-stakes legend Erik Seidel and two-time SHRB champ Justin Bonomo.

The rake-free event presented by Poker Central and livestreamed for fans the world over on PokerGO drew a characteristically stacked field full of poker's finest to the Caribbean.
Dvoress opened the final table fifth in chips, according to the live updates, after Seth Daviesbagged the lead going to the final day.
The Canadian, though, had a fortuitous start as he made a huge hand right away against Jason Koon when he got there with a combo draw against Koon's flopped set of eights. Fortunately for Koon, he was able to avoid sending a full double over as he checked back the river when Dvoress hit his flush.
Chip Leaders Stumble
While Dvoress was surging into the lead, several of the favorites experienced nothing but misfortune on the final day.
Former all-time money leader Bonomo was first out after he attempted to run a massive three-barrel bluff on Seidel. The board came , and Bonomo blasted three streets holding , preserving just a single chip. Seidel had turned sevens full, so Bonomo's play had no shot, and he soon headed to the rail without a third SHRB title.
Davies and Koon, who started the day as the top two stacks, also busted among the first four, along with Steve O'Dwyer.
Koon lost a large flip to Wai Leong Chan with ace-king against jacks and then lost the rest flipping with Kathy Lehne.
Davies attempted a large bluffcatch in a limped blinds battle on , calling a small turn bet then a river shove with . Dvoress got him with the though, relegating the start-of-day leader to fifth place.
Dvoress Dominates Late Stages
Everyone was fairly even to start four-handed play, but Dvoress positioned himself for the win in short order. He flopped a set of threes after calling a raise from Seidel, and Seidel was unable to get away from turned top pair of kings after flopping a flush draw with . He called off nearly all of his chips after tanking for 12 extensions worth of time.
Unable to recover with his last three big blinds, he settled for third.
It seemed the win would come fairly quickly for Dvoress after that as he got Chan in nearly dead with an overpair of tens on . However, Dvoress' trips turned to dust when Chan turned tens full to grab the lead for himself.
Dvoress picked himself up off the mat, though, and he found a double with the nut flush on the river when Chan couldn't find a fold with turned top pair.
That proved to be the turning point as nobody overtook Dvoress from there. He ground down his remaining two opponents over the next few hours, with Chan the one making it heads up after cracking Lehne's aces on the river with pocket sixes.
While he battled for about 90 minutes, Chan never really threatened Dvoress' lead, and an attempted river check-raise bluff with a missed straight against kings up cost him most of his chips en route to a second-place finish.
