Overlay #2 as Rebuy Madness Falls Short
For just the second time in 18 tournaments, a PACOOP event missed out on the guarantee. Event #18 ($50 No Limit Hold’em w/rebuys) had a 208-player field that added 174 re-buys and another 55 add-ons to bring the total entries to 437 – just $116.50 short of the $20,000 guarantee to join Event #13 ($150 No Limit Hold’em w/Escalating Antes) as the only events with an overlay to date.
This one also came down to a deal. ‘Allin1out‘ and ‘luap215‘ made a deal heads-up that saw ‘Allin1out’ and ‘luap215’ guarantee themselves $3,768.01 and $3,122.05 respectively. They left $500 to play for and ‘Allin1out’ claimed that after eliminating ‘luap215’ in second place. ‘Turniptruck39‘ secured a $2,285.76 score for finishing in third-place.
