Jim Collopy Crowned 2024 Poker Masters Champion
The 2024 Poker Masters presented by PokerStars NAPT continued on Friday from the PokerGO Studio at ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, with Event #5: $10,100 No-Limit Hold’em. The tournament drew 75 entries and Filipp Khavin leads the final five players.
Khavin was among the shorter stacks with 17 players remaining but found the rush at the right time to finish as the chip leader. He leads a final table that includes Sam Laskowitz, David Chen, Jim Collopy, and Chino Rheem. These five players will return on Monday at 11:45 a.m. already guaranteed $52,500. Up top for the winner is the $217,500 first-place prize, 218 PGT points, and the Event #5 trophy.
The field of 75 entrants created a prize pool of $750,000 and the final 11 players earned a piece of it. Kristen Foxen just missed out, busting on the money bubble when Laskowitz's nines cracked her aces. Jeremy Ausmus, (11th), Nicholas Seward (10th), David Coleman (9th), and Jeremy Becker (8th) busted before the final table.
Samuel Ju fell in seventh and was followed to the rail by Isaac Haxton in sixth. Haxton was short-stacked and got his last few big blinds in with king-ten, but failed to improve against Chen's ace-queen.
