On Saturday April 21, the partypoker MILLIONS North America $10,300 Buy-in High Roller event commenced at the Playground Poker Club in Montreal, Canada, and it was David Eldridge who came out on top of the lineup and claimed the first event, winning $300,000 (CAD) and the title.
The first $10,300 High Roller event of MILLIONS North America was able to gather 80 entries, and the ones who made it to the final table included the likes of Chris Moorman, Viktor ‘Isildur1' Blom, Parker Talbot and Victor Ramdin.
After a grueling 10 hours worth of poker play, it was David Eldridge who managed to beat everyone at the final table to claim the title and the sweet prize money. The final showdown was a heads-up match against fellow American and tourney veteran Victor Ramdin.
Meanwhile, the 27-year-old Swedish Viktor ‘Isildur1' Blom ended up in 5th place for approximately US$56,800. In his final hand, his pocket sevens got shot down by Eldridge's pocket jacks.
Thanks to this win, Eldridge's live tournament earnings now exceed $1,000,000!
