Everyone thought Viktor Blom would win the
Super High Roller Bowl Online Series Leaderboard and claim a free $102,000 seat to the final event, since he
won three events and cashed in four others. Thanks to a late surge, Russian player Artur Martirosian managed to snag the post and became the overall leaderboard winner.
Martirosian secured the first of his eight cashes in Event #8: $25,500 NLHE, in which he finished third for $238,000 behind Blom and champion Dan Smith. Martirosian then finished runner-up to Justin Bonomo in another $25,500 event (#11) and padded his bankroll with $405,000.
The Russian poker pro was victorious in Event #16, a $10,300 tournament for $234,605, and continued cashing in for another five times.
Martirosian's Excellent SHRB Results
3rd in Event #8: $25,500 NLHE for $238,000
2nd in Event #11: $25,500 NLHE for $405,000
1st in Event #16: $10,300 NLHE for $234,605
2nd in Event #19: $10,300 NLHE for $150,500
2nd in Event #23: $25,500 NLHE for $275,141
10th in Event #25: $10,300 NLHE for $25,750
2nd in Event #26: $25,500 NLHE for $352,000
3rd in Event #27: $10,300 NLHE for $114,400
His above achievements were enough to send him to the top of the leaderboard as the overall champion.
He said, "I am very happy, I spent lot of effort, time and emotions during this leaderboard race, but it all ended perfectly. Yes, I was not very lucky in heads-ups and every heads-up loss upset me, but everything was going great before that, so it would be ridiculous to complain. This is an excellent result, I plan to continue to play all these series and spend even more time working on a game outside the series."
