The Final Table Action
Plesuv came into the final table with a nice lead, after scoring a massive knockout Jan "hownorez" Nakladal in 11th place. From there, Plesuv wouldn't look back, constantly putting pressure on his opponents to continue to amass a humongous chip stack.
That aggression was on perfect display in the first knockout of the final table, where Plesuv would end up five shoving with just Ace-Deuce in an effort to isolate against the small stack, "PrettyVinnie." After he scooped that pot, Plesuv amazingly held half of the chips in play, even though it was still eight handed.
With such a massive chip lead, Plesuv was content to let other stacks battle each other from there, mostly sitting on the sidelines until he got back over 100 million chips with the elimination of "K0SICE."
From that point on, Plesuv would score every elimination, a massive reason why he took home a huge portion of the bounty prizepool, $67,247 total. To put that in perspective, the next highest bounty total at the final table was just $11,334, earned by Luis "luisnrd" Dorneles.
