I know.
On the morning that a court handed Carole Baskin the keys to Joe Exotic’s former zoo, you’re wondering if there is any justice in the world?
Well, justice served on the virtual felt on Day 9 of the Super High Roller Bowl Online (SHRBO).
When Sam Greenwood enters a poker competition, he can extinguish people’s light like a great mass of cumulus clouds. The luck element helps keep his rampages from being too expansive, but he’s managed to swerve the deck’s shadow these past few days to earn a couple of titles.
Greenwood thwarted the hopes of 50-entrants to claim the top prize of $200,000 by winning Event #24: $10,300 No Limit Hold ’em. The Canadian also won Event #20: $25,000 No Limit Hold ’em for $399,000. Despite his two wins, Greenwood isn’t in the running for the free SHRBO seat, but once again underlines his brilliance in the Cadillac of Poker.
One man who is in with a shout of winning the preliminary leaderboard, and with it, a seat in the $102,000 SHRBO is Artur Martirosian. The Russian finished runner-up to Stephen Chidwick in Event #23: 25,500 No Limit Hold ’em for his sixth in the money (ITM) finish, most of which have been at the deeper end of the pool. The win is Chidwick’s first ITM finish of the series, and the name of the great man has been mysteriously absent in the animated online poker meanderings during the lockdown.
Alexandros Kolonias is the third winner of the day.
The Poker Masters Online Champion creamed a field of 77-entrants in Event #22: 10,300 No Limit Hold ’em, beating Matthias Eibinger, heads-up, for the $240,860.62 first prize.
