Nemeth back on top in Poker Masters as Aussies dominate weekend results

Two more days of top-level online poker action have seen the lead at the top of the 2020 Poker Masters leaderboard change hands yet again.

Event #8

With 104 entries, the $10,000-entry no-limit hold’em event saw players in the Top 10 of the leaderboard experience mixed fortunes. Players such as Joao Vieira(10th for $26,000), Chris ‘Big Huni’ Hunichen (9th for $26,000) and Mike ‘Sir Watts’ Watson (15th for $20,800) all fell short of the final table but made money.

The final table saw Alex Foxen (7th for $41,600) and Timothy Adams (6th for $52,000) fall just short of glory, but some of the most in-form players on the planet – and in these Poker Masters – were fighting for the win. Elias Talvitie finished 4th for $91,000 and was outlasted by Spanish player Sergi Reixach in 3rd place for $130,000. It would be Hungarian player Andras Nemeth ($182,000) who made the heads-up battle, but he couldn’t get the better of Finnish PLO specialist and partypoker pro Joni Jouhkimainen, who won the event for just over a quarter of a million dollars. He was delighted with his result and put up a screenshot ‘for the fans’ on social media shortly afterwards.
