MicroMillions Event #87 was a specialty for the series as only the second one Fixed Limit Hold'em tournament at the schedule. It takes a undeniable breed of poker player to enjoy playing Fixed Limit Hold'em. NUMEROUS older players grew up with the sport but it's becoming well-liked by increasingly more grinders. The massive bet game pulls in numerous math savvy players and reduces the threshold against strictly no limit players.
The $3.30 buy-in tournament drew 5,669 players for a $17,007 prizepool and $2,596 to the winner. The turbo structure kept the players moving at a brisk pace and the limit betting gave players various chances to chase their draws. The played all the way down to the last two tables in only three hours and punkiis showed probably the most dangers within the game.
punkiis was drawing thin with 5♦5♠ on a J♠J♥2♠ flop against trip Jacks but ImSoGood was unable to push him out of the hand before the two-outter hit at the turn. The hand propelled punkiss (temporarily) to the highest of the sphere but both would make the general table.
The final table began with all the players within the danger zone; just one participant had greater than 20 big blinds. Or within the parlance of limit poker players, everyone had lower than 10 big bets rather than the chipleader. That left little room for movement and the overall table was one of the vital quickest outside a hyper turbo, lasting only 24 total hands and producing three knockouts within the first 10 hands.

Valya98 runs into rockets, eliminated in 6th
punkiis showed a willingness to gamble on his strategy to the overall table but didn't wish to hit a miracle to speak out the primary player. punkiis opened for a raise under the gun and only Valya98 came along from the small ignorant of the A♠5♥3♦ flop.
It took all four bets to get the chips within the middle and Valya98 was probably happy to do it with A♥J♣ top pair but hopes were dashed quickly when punkiis tabled A♦A♣ for high set. Rather than a glimmer of hope, Valya98 was left drawing dead to the useless 9♥ turn and 2♦ river to be the primary out in 6th for $255.
ImSoSuper not so good, eliminated in 5th
punkiis took a couple of hands off before entering it again. ImSoSuper opened for a raise and punkiis installed a second bet enough to hide ImSoSuper, who called with K♠Q♦.
punkiis was holding Aces this time, but his K♥K♣ was his second premium starter in only a couple of hands. ImSoSuper needed an even flop to have a possibility but missed the 9♣8♥7♥ flop completely and punkiis had another opponent drawing dead before the river after the 4♦ turn. ImSoSuper picked an outstanding hand to take a stand but bumped into a monster to move out in 5th place for $482.
evgeny5sorry not apologetic, eliminated in 4th
The 10th hand of the overall table, and the 2nd consecutive all-in, saw evgeny5sorry all-in from the large blind for just 134k greater than the small blind. punkiis and singul4rity both folded before Ksuysha75 threw out a tiny call from the small blind.
evgeny5sorry has a playable 8♥7♣ but got unlucky not to have two live cards as Ksuysha75 tabled Q♣7♥. evgeny5sorry needed a large number of help but didn't get it when the flop came K♥T♥2♥ then missed the K♦ turn. The Q♠ river supplied a knockout in back-to-back hands to send evgeny5sorry out of the tournament in 4th place for $807.
singul4rity undefined, eliminated in 3rd
There was a moment when it gave the impression of their could be deal negotiations about to start but punkiis quickly shot the idea down. singul4rity opened from the small blind and Ksuysha75 raised from the big.
The flop came Q♦9♥9♠ and singul4rity checked called a chance from Ksuysha75 before the 6♦ turn. singul4rity led out this time and Ksuysha75 flatted to the T♦ river. singul4rity checked called all-in to turn Q♠5♠ for flopped two pair but saw Ksuysha75 show K♥J♠ for the rivered gutshot. singul4rity was short all the way but couldn't hang on, getting knocked out in 3rd place for $1,318.
Ksuysha75 limits damage to win Event #87
punkiis (13,792,357 in chips)
Ksuysha75 (14,552,643 in chips)
That knockout hand provided Ksuysha75 with a slight chiplead but there has been a large swing at the first hand of heads up play. Both players capped the betting preflop before the A♥A♠8♣ flop after which capped it again to the 9♥ turn. They both stayed aggressive and capped the betting again before the 5♠ river. Ksuysha75 put out a gamble and punkiis finally bogged down with only a call.
Ksuysha75 showed down A♦K♣ for trip Aces and a 21,600,000 pot.
punkiis was capable of stage a mini-comeback with two doubles but finally took a shot for only a raise with J♥6♠ with Ksuysha75 holding K♣Q♠. The 8♥4♠2♦3♥A♥ board ran completely clean for Ksuysha75 to knock out punkiis in 2nd for $1,828 leaving Ksuysha75 because the newest MicroMillions champion.
