Austrian player won High Roller Tournament at WPT Online
In early March, we wrote that in May, PartyPoker would host the WPT Online series with a total guarantee of $15 000 000, which is usually held live.
The High Roller tournament with a $5 200 buy-in and a$1 000 000 guarantee has been carried out as part of this series.
The event gathered a field of 225 players, which helped to beat the claimed guarantee for $125 000.
The winner of the tournament was the poker player performing under the flag of Austria – Pascal Hartmann, whose payout for the first place amounted to $205 800.
