The premier of this online-live event drew 905 entries who created a $859,750 prize pool. The initial 905 participants played down to a final table of six players online on July 2. The final day took place two days later at the Rio in Las Vegas (live poker).

The final table only took three hours to complete with Anthony Spinella being crowned the winner after dominating the final stages of the tournament. Spinella, who has won $4.6 million playing online poker, took home his first gold bracelet and $197,743 in prize money.

"It feels good to win this," Spinella said of the gold bracelet victory. "I've been playing for a long time now and always want to win one, so this really feels great."

Many congratulations to Anthony Spinella on winning his first bracelet. This guy has won over $4.5 million playing online so its no surprise to see him winning this WSOP event

I had no idea that they will have a format-change tournament on this years schedule... I mean why play down online this and have the final table live - why can't they go off with the whole shebang online? Probably a publicity stunt or the lack of originality.

Second Place: Hunter Cichy, from Coon Rapids, MN finished in 2nd place. He earned $116,743. This was his fourth time to cash this summer.

Third Place: Craig Varnell, from Ft. Collins, CO finished in 3rd place. He collected $73,079. This was his sixth time to cash at the 2015 series. Varnell has demonstrated a remarkable talent for outmaneuvering large fields. He not only went deep in this tourney, he also cashed in the Colossus and Millionaire Maker events.

Fourth Place: Andrew Rose, from Las Vegas, NV finished in 4th place, which paid $55,884. This marked his second time to cash at the series, after an in-the-money finish in the 2011 WSOP Main Event Championship.

Fifth Place: David Tuthill, from St. Petersburg, FL finished in 5th place, which paid $47,286. He’s now posted four cashes and two final tables this summer, with this being his best showing.

Sixth Place: Ryan Franklin, from Jacksonville, FL finished in 6th place, which paid $33,530. This was his fourth career cash at the series and first since making a deep run in the 2009 Main Event Championship.

Yup, he is on a hot streak right now. I'd happily buy some percentages of his future tourneys tbh.
