David Peters has won his second PokerGO Tour (PGT) event of 2022 after he defeated Byron Kaverman in the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open (SHRPO) $50,000 Super High Roller.
Peters topped the 25-entrant field to win the $407,545 first-place prize after a deal was struck with Kaverman. Elio Fox, Sergio Aido, and Krishna Lawrence also finished in the money behind Peters and Kaverman. With his win, Peters climbed into 31st place on the PGT leaderboard with 1,148 PGT points.
The first high roller of the SHRPO would be the $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller. In the first-ever high-roller Pot-Limit Omaha tournament held at Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood, Florida, a 52-entrant field would pay the top eight finishers.
PGT regulars David Coleman, Matthew Wantman, and Isaac Kempton finished in the money. Melad Marji defeated Michael Duek heads-up to win the title and $443,118 first-place prize. With Duek's runner-up finish, he vaulted into fifth place on the PGT leaderboard with 2,252 PGT points to trail Jake Schindler (2,751 PGT points), Phil Ivey (2,742 PGT points), Stephen Chidwick (2,675 PGT points), and Ali Imsirovic (2,328 PGT points).
