Hardware Seized in Kim Myers' Wednesday Activities
In a thrilling turn of events, the Pure Poker Tour (PPT) recently saw two first-time champions emerge victorious in consecutive tournaments.
The first of these momentous wins was secured by Dae Kim in Event #11: $300 NLH Deepstack Hyper. The final table, which took approximately 8 hours to play, saw a three-way flip-for-the-chips moment that added an extra layer of drama to the tournament. In the end, Kim clinched the win, earning himself his first PPT trophy and a prize of $5,588.
The tournament, which had 106 entries and a total prize pool of $27,189, saw a notable in-the-money play that lasted for the entire duration of the game. Joining Kim at the final table were Ali Razzaq and Faton Bislimi. Razzaq finished in 2nd place, earning $6,010, while Bislimi took home $4,890 for his 3rd place finish.
Meanwhile, Event #10: $560 NLH also saw a first-time PPT winner. Josh Myers clinched the win, securing his largest live score ever at $13,610. This victory was not only Myers' first on the PPT but also his first to come with hardware. The in-the-money play for this event lasted for approximately 4 hours before Myers secured the win.
The final table for Event #10 was a star-studded affair, featuring players like Colten Yamagishi, Andy Truong, Michael "Berny" Bernstein, Jerry Li, Alex Liu, Brett Worton, Shawn Taghavi, Mike Malm, and Kris Steinbach.
Prior to his PPT win, Myers had picked up two other wins in live events last year, one at Pure Casino Yellowhead and another in a Fall Super Stack bounty event in Calgary. It's worth noting that Josh Myers has had multiple final table appearances on the Pure Poke Tour.
Dae Kim, on the other hand, is known for his significant achievement in the PPT, where he won the $300 Deepstack Hyper event, marking a lightning-fast victory in that particular tournament on the Pure Poker Tour.
These back-to-back wins on the PPT are a testament to the exciting and unpredictable nature of poker tournaments, and we look forward to seeing who will emerge victorious in the next events.
In the midst of the Pure Poker Tour, Event #10: $560 NLH included casino-and-gambling games such as poker, with Josh Myers making his mark as a first-time champion by winning his largest live score ever at $13,610, which also earned him his first PPT trophy. Meanwhile, Dae Kim secured his first PPT victory in Event #11: $300 NLH Deepstack Hyper, showcasing his skill in various casino-games offered at the Pure Poker Tour, including poker.
