You have likely bumped into Canada’s “algsxr” if you frequent online poker tournaments at 888poker. It is also likely the Canadian has relieved you have your stack at some stage. That was certainly the case for many on February 27 because “algsxr” took down the $109 PKO 6-Max, part of the PokerNews Online Championship, and received another $3,231 in prize money.

The $12,000 guaranteed event saw 135 players buy-in, including a trio of entries for the eventual champion. Those entrants meant a $13,500 prize pool was up for grabs, and “algsxr” got their hands on almost a quarter of it.

After “Capone3830,““netopia15,““PasHTeT25,” and “MatheusCG” crashed and burned, “algsxr” found themselves heads-up against “Knoxtod” of Austria for the title. Both players secured $1,468 from the regular prize pool, leaving the final progressive bounty payments up for grabs.

As is often the case at this stage of a tournament, “algsxr” came out on top, adding $1,763 worth of bounties to their haul, for a total prize worth $3,231; the runner-up captured a $2,265 payout.
