Paul Phua Wins the €100,000 Reentry at the Monte-Carlo One Drop Extravaganza (€752,700)

Nível 15 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

A big cash game and a €100,000 freeze-out were on the schedule for the last day of the 2016 Monte-Carlo One Drop Extravaganza, but just the tournament ran. After three days of crazy side-game action with games as high as €1,000/€2,000 and multiple 7-figure winners, no one seemed ready for another day of cash game play.

The tournament did run, though a bit later and as a reentry instead of a freezeout. A dozen players entered the €100,000-event, the final event of the schedule.

It was Paul Phua who outlasted the 13-entry strong field to claim the first prize of €752,700. The victory is the second largest of his career and came after he defeated Mikita Badziakouski in a short heads-up battle.

The event was supposed to start at 11am but the high rollers didn't seem to want to wake up that early for the second biggest event of the week. Instead, the event got underway at 1pm with seven players.

Not only the format had been changed, the objection against professional players entering had also been lifted. And so Tom Marchese sat down, followed by the likes of Mustapha Kanit, Andrew Robl and Mikita Badziakouski.

Gradually, more players entered till a total of 12 players were playing on two separate tables. Late registration was open for eight of the 20-minute levels and just Cary Katz did so after busting minutes before registration closed.

Paul Phua was the one grabbing Katz's chips, giving him a small edge on the rest of the field at that time. With short levels and not a lot of tanking, action was incredibly fast paced.

It didn't take long before the final table was reached. Yaqi Sun lost all of his chips in a three-way all in, Patrick Madden hit the rail after getting it in with queen-jack to king-queen, and Robl and Marchese went out to Phua in a three-way all in.

One Drop champion Elton Tsang, who showed no signs of a hangover despite promising to go partying after his €11,111,111 win the night before, was the first to make his exit playing on the last table. Cary Katz looked him up twice with an inferior hand but came from behind both times to send the 35-year old millionaire packing.

Kanit hit the rail at the hands of Paul Phua who declared it "The day of the businessmen!" right after. The Italian high roller had walked into a classic cooler with top and bottom pair up against top two.

Dan Shak was next to go, and again Cary Katz was the one stacking chips after someone made his exit. Katz had the best hand with ace-king suited this time, Shak couldn't come from behind with his ace-seven suited.

Katz himself would be next, handing his chips to Shakerchi. Katz with the king-queen couldn't catch up against Shakerchi's pocket treys and Katz made his exit.

At this point, the blinds got real big and with the level almost moving up again, players were having to make some action. A three-way all-in resulted in Zuo Wang hitting the rail while Shakerchi was left with a single big blind. Phua had aces against Wang's jack-ten and Shakerchi's ace-king. A board full of blanks resulted in a situation where no real bubble was to be had.

Three players were still in and the difference between getting third and second was over half a million, but with Shakerchi just having a single big blind, everyone knew what was about to happen. Shakerchi shoved from the button and remarkably enough, Phua folded his small blind. That left Badziakouski with the dirty work who did just that hitting a pair on the river to eliminate Shakerchi and bursting the bubble.

Despite eliminating Shakerchi, Badziakouski was still the short stack up against the giant stack of Paul Phua. Badziakouski, who was very chatty this tournament, doubled once but busted minutes later anyway. In the final hand Badziakouski was up against pocket treys with his king-six suited.

"Flip! Flip! Flip!" Phua exclaimed excitedly. He would win it, the board came just blanks and Phua could lift the trophy and cheque worth €752,700.

That concludes our coverage of the Monte-Carlo One Drop Extravaganza 2016 from Monaco. Right now, we still have updates from the 888Live Poker Festival in London and later this week we'll report from Malta for the penultimate European Poker Tour of the year.

Mikita Badziakouski Eliminated in 2nd Place (€501,800)

Paul Phua and Mikita Badziakouski
Paul Phua and Mikita Badziakouski

Mikita Badziakouski open-shoved from the button for his last 800,000 or so. Paul Phua looked at both his cards, held them right before his eyes and said; "Yeah,... I call"

Mikita Badziakouski: {K-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}
Paul Phua: {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

"Flip flip flip!" Phua said with a big smile.

The flop came {A-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and Badziakouski asked for a diamond on the turn.

Instead, the {A-Hearts} came, which wasn't a bad card either for Badziakouski.

"Four!" the Belarusian high stakes player instructed the dealer.

She didn't oblige as the {Q-Clubs} on the river was a blank and Phua was crowned the champion.

"Yeah! Champion!" he cheered.

Paul Phua Gets Some Back

Nível 15 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Mikita Badziakouski limped from the button, and Paul Phua checked his option in the big blind.

The flop came {10-Clubs}{7-Spades}{3-Spades} and Phua checked. Badziakouski bet 60,000 and Phua called.

Both players checked the {3-Diamonds} on the turn and the river was the {k-Spades}. Phua led out for 160,000 and Badziakouski called.

Phua tabled {5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} for trip threes, and Badziakouski mucked his cards

Badziakouski Doubles

Nível 15 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Paul Phua shoved from the button and Mikita Badziakouski peeked at his cards one by one.

"This one is good," he said after seeing the first one.

"Oh yes..." he said after looking at the other.

Paul Phua: {9-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Mikita Badziakouski: {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

"Ah no! Dominated!" Phua exclaimed with a big smile on his face.

The board ran out {A-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} and Badziakouski doubled his 480,000 stack.

Down to just 35,000 Talal Shakerchi, who was on the button, said: "I don't know if I should bother looking." He did look and then moved all-in. "I don't know what I should do," said Paul Phua who then folded the small blind. "Wow," said Mikita Badziakouski, "Can't believe you didn't call!"

The Belarussian already had 40,000 in as he was the big blind, so he took 5,000 back and it was time for the showdown. Shakerchi showed {10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} while Badziakouski held {3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. "He has the best hand, I folded seven-four," exclaimed Phua.

The {7-Hearts}{9-Spades}{4-Spades} flop was therefore pretty amusing to the table, there were, even more, laughs when the {4-Hearts} hit the turn. The {2-Clubs} river made Badziakouski two pairs and the winning hand to eliminate Shakerchi and just like that we're heads-up with Paul Phua having a four to one chip lead.

Zuo Wang moved all in from the button for 540,000. Talal Shakerchi moved all in over the top from the small blind. Paul Phua was in the big blind. He slowly squeezed his cards, then let out short whoop of excitement and turned over {a-Hearts}{a-Spades} as he announced a call. Shakerchi showed {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}, and Wang had {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}.

The board ran out {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}, and Phua's bullets held. He was all in for 765,000, and Shakerchi just barely had him outchipped.

Cary Katz: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}
Talal Shakerchi: {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}

The board ran out an uneventful {2-Spades}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and Katz made his exit in 5th place.

Three Shoves, no Calls

Nível 14 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

The final five are playing a game of 'Who's turn is is it to shove anyway?". Well Paul Phua, Zuo Wang and Talal Shakerchi have all had a go, with Shakerchi's hand being the most interesting.

He raised from a stack of 580,000 and picked up calls from Mikita Badziakouski and Cary Katz, in the blinds. On the {3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop Shakerchi moved all-in and picked up the pot.
