Stregone2000 wins Pokerstars Super Tuesday

This week’s Super Tuesday poker tournament had a prizepool of $552,000 and kicked off with 552 players. The final table was set with Stregone2000 as the chip leader and slight favorite to win. The momentum began to shift towards Roothlus after he eliminated 4 players in a row and held half the chips in play. When it got 3 handed, they were just about to discuss a deal when Stregone2000 found himself on the upper end of a cooler in a huge pot against Roothlus. Head27 played heads up with a big chip deficit and was quickly eliminated. Stregone2000 would be this week’s Super Tuesday winner and take home $118,000 for his accomplishment.
