Recapping the final chase, Aliaksei Boika “BladeRunner1” (9th) was first to fall at the hands of Shankar Pillai “Saquon”. Koon lost his lead to Hunichen when his A-J offsuit missed against pocket Queens for a costly double up. After Aram Zobian “Pusha T” eliminated $1K Ultra Satellite qualifier Paulius Plausinaitis “ChickenBBQ” (8th), Rudolph claimed his first of five heads with Koon on the bitter end. Rudolph’s A-Q found an Ace on the board to dust pocket tens. Next two on the German’s hit list were Brunno Botteon (6th) and Zobian (5th). This gave Rudolph the lead which he held to the finish.
More chips for Rudolph with Aleksejs Ponakovs downed in 4th place. To enter heads up, Hunichen eliminated Pillai with only a one million chip deficit against Rudolph.
The final gold chase clocked in at 18 minutes. Rudolph took command, building a 5:1 gap. Hunichen grinded back but still wasn’t able to overtake Rudolph. When the lead was up to 12:1, Rudolph nailed it shut with Q-10 lucky against K-Q to become the most envied WSOP Online [ international ] champion.

Leading up to the final table, Emanuele Monari “BudSpencer” railed two players during the final 16 to carry in an intimidating monster stack. Trygve Leite “FullSendWig” was running second in chips. Surrounding them were two WSOP ring winners Gregory Ronaldson “C0bb” and Paul Lozano “Pistolero99”. The most decorated of the pack was American pro Connor Drinan with $ 11.2 million in live earnings and 42 WSOP cashes. Drinan was also on his 13th cash this series and second final table.
From the get-go, the final table was dominated by Leite eventually railing four players before facing Monari for the title. Leite’s first victim was Connor Drinan (9th) then China’s Jihuan He “brahms” (7th) after Eliyahu Elyashiv “yaldon” eliminated David Mitchell “Stoic123” in 8th place.
With the chip lead seized, Leite proceeded to muscle the felt, leading to the fall of Lozano for a third player slashed by the charging Norwegian. Monari tried to catch up, finishing off Ronaldson (5th) and Elyashiv (4th) however Leite surged further ahead after eliminating India’s Anjali Agrawal “Iwanashipit” in 3rd place.
Ahead roughly 2:1, it took one tough hour for Leite to close it out. During that time, Monari displayed an impressive uphill climb however, Leite’s lead simply could not be breached. Leite went on to win it for his first WSOP title and bracelet.
