PokerStars' World Championship of Online Poker Event #64: 8-Game High Roller came to an end a few hours ago. 93 players particapted and PokerStars can't be more happy with the outcome as Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier ($253 425) won the tournament and Daniel Negreanu finished 3rd for $130 200.
In total, 12 players received a piece of the prize pool, including famous players such as Niki "RealAndyBeal" Jedlicka and Sorel Mizzi. Sweden's very own Viktor "Isildur1" Blom also took part in the tournament, but unfortunately he didn't make it to the money. In total, Blom has played 15 WCOOP events and not cashed in a single one of them. Let's hope he has better luck at the nosebleed tables this week!

The €100,000 Super High Roller event will return on April 23 during PokerStars European Poker Tour Grand Final in Monte Carlo. Yesterday it was announced that 20 players have pre-registered for the tournament so far, which means that at least a €2,000,000 prize pool will be up for grabs.
Some of the most interesting players who will take part are Viktor "Isildur1" Blom, Patrik Antonius, "ElkY", Sorel Mizzi, Tony G and Daniel Negreanu. Viktor Blom won the last Super High Roller for amazing $1,254,400! That event was played at the Atlantis Resort and Casino (during PCA) in January this year and saw a field of 30 players (2 players made a rebuy). It will be interesting to see if the upcoming Super High Roller will be as successful.

Posted on 07 December 2010 by "T". |
The WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic is down to 15 players after a very interesting day that Antonio "The Magician" Esfandiari dominated. Esfandiari has accumulated 2,608,000 chips and his next closest competitor is John Racener, who started day 4 with only 137,000 chips, but ended the day with 1.9 million chips.
There are a few familiar faces left in the remaining field of players. However, the most interesting players to follow, except from The Magician and Racener, will for sure be Sorel Mizzi in 7th place with a 1,380,000 stack and Vanessa Rousso in 10th place with 888,000 chips.
Day 5 of the tournament will begin in a couple of hours. The tournament will continue until the six-handed final table is set. The first place pays $870,124, so one can expect a very exciting final table!

Posted on 26 October 2010 by "T". |
We are quite used to read and hear about the canadian poker pro Sorel Mizzi and his success in different live tournaments such as EPT, WPT & WSOP, however, it's not all that often that we hear about his success online. Last Sunday, Sorel Mizzi had a fantastic day in 2 of the biggest Sunday tournaments at PokerStars.
He survived a field of 4,786 players in the Sunday Warm-Up and grabbed the first place prize of $149,737, then he reached the final table in the $215+R NLH $150k Guarantee. However, he finished in 4th place ($14,507) and instead it was Paresh "Dana Gordon" Jain who won the tournament for $34,000.

Posted on 30 August 2010 by "T". |
The Main Event of EPT Vilamoura is about to start any minute now. 221 out of 384 players have survived Day 1 and made it to Day 2. Daniel Mineri, Sorel Mizzi (picture) and Antonio Esfandiari are, for example, big names that have been doing very well so far in the tournament. All of them are in the top of the remaining field of players. Chip leader, however, is Leonind Bilokur from Russia. Bilokur has accumulated 161,200 chips so far and played extremely well. But there is no time for him to sit back and relax yet since there are a few players who are very close behind him.
The 384 players who entered the tournament have created a prize pool of almost 1.9 million euro which means that the top prize pays almost half a million euro. Ladies and gentlemen, with so much money up for grabs and so many notables left it will for sure be very exciting to follow the rest of the tournament.

Posted on 19 May 2010 by "T". |
24 players paid the buy-in of €20,000 and entered the High Roller tournament at WPT Paris last weekend. The field included notables such as the american poker legend Freddy Deeb, Kristoffer Thorsson from Sweden and probably the hottest player in the poker world right now, Sorel Mizzi. Freddy Deeb reached the final table second in chips and managed to stay there all the way to heads up against Sorel Mizzi.
Sorel Mizzi had a massive chip lead and probably no one thought that Deeb could win the tournament. However, 2 all ins changed everything and suddenly Deeb was the big favorite to win. Sorel Mizzi was a bit shocked after this and more or less gave up. It didn't take long before Deeb grabbed the first place prize of €290,000.
"I cannot believe I came back, he kept making me call, but I changed my game and got a bit of a break." said Deeb after the win.

For the second year in a row, an Australian won the Aussie Millions Main Event and kept the title from leaving Australia. For the win, Tyron Krost, 23, received $2,000,000 AUD ($1,765,920 USD). One can't say anything else than that it was a very well deserved win as he outlasted the 746 players strong starting field and also defeated 2 of the hottest names in tournament poker on the final table - Annette Obrestad & Sorel Mizzi.
Final Table Results 1: Tyron Krost - $2,000,000 2: Frederik Jensen - $1,100,000 3: Sorel Mizzi - $715,000 4: Kosta Varoxis - $450,000 5: Peter Jetten - $350,000 6: Steve Friedlander - $250,000 7: Annette Obrestad - $175,000 8: Stephen Shelly - $125,000
2010 Aussie Millions is now over after that all 20 events have found their winners. Aussie Millions has been very successful this year (as always) with lots of action from start to end. Let's hope that next year will be even better with more pros taking part and bigger prize pools up for grabs!
