Alejandro “PapoMC” Lococo Falls One Step Short Of Victory In $10K GGMillion$

How events unfolded at the GGMillion$ final table

During the first hour of play, no one was eliminated. But Alejandro “PapoMC” Lococo pulled off one of the most spectacular bluffs in the tournament’s history.

Effective stack = 46 bb. PapoMC opened from UTG+1 9 8 and got two calls from Teun Malder with K Q right behind him, and Enrico Camosci on the BTN with K K .

Flop 9 4 4 — PapoMC hit top pair and played check-call.
Turn A — everyone checked
River 10 — it would seem that 9 8 is no good here. Fold, forget, move on to the next hand.

But PapoMC isn’t the type to give up. Camosci bet 7.5 bb into a 15 bb pot. PapoMC moved all-in for 42.4 bb. Camosci tanked for half a minute and folded. PapoMC showed 8 . What a legend! After this hand, PapoMC moved to second place in the chip count with 65 bb. Only Mulder had more chips: 84 big blinds.

Overall, Teun Malder started the final table as chip leader and controlled the table throughout: constantly opening, 3-betting — in short, not letting players with shorter stacks breathe. The cards were also going his way. For example, in 8th place he knocked out Ivan Ilichev: A8o > AQo for a 25 bb pot, 8 hit the flop.

In 4th place, Mulder eliminated Camosci from the tournament. They got it in preflop in an SB vs BB hand: 10 8 > A J , 50 bb pot, T on the turn.

Sebastian Gaehl finished in 3rd place. He got it in with K 9 vs A 9 of PapoMC, Ace hit the flop.

In heads-up, PapoMC had 30 bb, Malder had 73 bb

They played less than 15 minutes. In the first hand, PapoMC doubled up.

But just a couple of hands later, he gave all the chips back.

In the final hand, PapoMC called all-in for his remaining 15 bb with A 10 , Mulder showed 5 4 . Already on the flop, PapoMC was almost drawing dead.
