PokerGO announced that there wasn't a willing participant to pay $1.6 million to enter Round 6 of High Stakes Duel III, which means Jason Koon is the game's official champion.
The GGPoker ambassador paid $800,000 to enter Round 5 against Phil Hellmuth in place of Scott Seiver, who backed out at the last-minute. Koon dominated the match from start to finish and came out victorious.
Why Koon Can Cash Out
Despite winning, he wasn't permitted to immediately cash out.
