Belea Bags More Than $27K and Main Event Title
In the inaugural PokerNews Online Championship Mystery Bounty Main Event, EPT Main Event champion Razvan “RazvyB” Belea topped the 1,627 runner field to scoop a total of $27,654, with $25,626 of that coming from his first place finish.
It was another 888poker major title for the Romanian, who won the 2021 888poker LIVE Bucharest Main Event for €50,000.
However, Brazil’s “Dangerzinn” was the biggest monetary winner in the Main Event as he banked the $30,000 mystery bounty prize en route to his 16th-place finish—quite the return from a $215 investment. Another big story from the Main Event was written by bronze medalist “dainuciuks”. The Lithuanian-based player won their way into the tournament via a freeroll and was able to parlay that into a $16,980 payday.
The last edition of the Main Event came with a $300,000 guarantee, and was obliterated with the final prize pool reaching $325,400.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Razvan “RazvyB” Belea | Romania | $27,654 |
| 2 | “betsoares” | Brazil | $19,367 |
| 3 | “dainuciuks” | Lithuania | $16,980 |
