Paul Snead Wins 2024 SHRPO Championship
The $5,300 SHRPO Championship, which took place from August 9-13, cruised by its $3 million guarantee as 865 entrants generated a $4,195,250 prize pool that was paid out to the top 109 finishers.
Among those to make deep runs were Ren Lin (56th - $15,500), Kristen Foxen (52nd - $18,400), Kitty Kuo (42nd - $21,800), Andrew Moreno (24th - $31,000), Jesse Lonis (13th - $49,000), Jeremy Becker (10th - $63,000), and Loni Hui (7th - $103,000).
With just three players remaining, the SHRPO Live Reporting Team reported that it was Level 30 (100,000/200,000/150,000) when Snead raised to 500,000 from the button and then called when Brandon Kessous moved all in for 7 million from the small blind. Kessous held ace-jack but was behind Sneadās pocket jacks, which held to score the knockout.
When heads-up play began Snead held a slight chip lead over Clemen Deng and the two worked a deal that saw them both take home over $500K while Snead became the official champion.
āIt feels amazing, I just feel like the Hard Rock is my home turf now,ā Snead told SHRPO reporters. āIām originally from New York and still live there and Florida now. Foxwoods used to be my home turf, but now I totally feel comfortable here and playing here. I love the way that they run tournament here, itās just great.ā
He added: āI was all in for my tournament life twice yesterday. I won a huge race with Ace-King against Queens, and then I came from behind all-in against Clemen Deng post-flop with Queens against Jack-10 on a Jack-10 flop. Those were the two hands where I could have been out of the tournament but I won. That hasnāt happened to me, so I feel really good ā¦ Iām ready to go hit the PokerGo studio for sure.ā

Kenney & Sepiol Work Deal in $25K High Roller
The biggest buy-in of the āBig Fourā was Event #54: $25,500 High Roller, which attracted 67 entrants and awarded a $1,654,900 prize pool. According to live updates from the event, three players remained when Alex Foxen raised to 65,000 from the button with the blinds at 15,000/30,000/30,000.
Dan Sepiol folded from the small blind and Bryn Kenney three-bet to 300,000 from the big blind. Foxen four-bet to 535,000 and then called off the 965,000 he had behind after Kenney five-bet jammed. Foxen held ace-queen but was dominated by the ace-king of Kenney. The board ran out low cards and Kenneyās kicker held to send Foxen to the rail in third place.
Kenney held 5.4 million to Sepiolās 1.3 million at the start of heads-up play, and the duo worked a deal that ultimately saw Kenney, as the chip lead, claim the SHRPO title plus $487,990 in prize money.

Kevin Ordet Spins It Up to Win $3,000 Deep Stack
Event #50: $3,000 Deep Stack NLH featured a $1 million guarantee, but it fell a bit short of meeting it drawing a field of 323 runners. That was paid out amongst the top 47 finishers including Cherish Andrews (43rd - $5,400), AJ Kelsall (36th - $6,500), Artem Metalidi (23rd - $10,000), Landon Tice (15th - $14,500), Justin Saliba (10th - $19,200), and Nick Seward (4th - $71,000), who fell just short of his third title of the series.
After Jim Collopy exited in third place, the title came down to Trace Henderson and Kevin Ordet. The latter had begun the final table eighth in chips and wound up the victor in a rollercoaster heads-up match to win the tournament outright for $190,800.
