Eibinger Beats Pedersen Heads-Up to Seal SCOOP win in Event #105

It was perhaps Matthias Eibinger’s run that was most impressive, if only for the fact that he came into the final table in last place of the five who had survived that far. The Six-Max format had seen two players bust on the final table bubble, with ‘Sepcpro_tect’ from Holland leaving in 7th place for $23,491 and Uzbekistan’s ‘shuhpat’ busting in 6th place for $30,598.

With an entry of $5,200, the top five were fighting for just a single six-figure score, and it would be a Brazilian player who left the final four fighting it out, Bruno Volkmann unable to improve when committed for all of his chips with pocket eights against Greek player ‘Geokarak’ and their pocket tens.
