The 2017 Playground Poker Spring Classic presented by partypoker LIVE has come to an end, crowning the final champion early Thursday morning.
Event #9: $330 NL Hold’em Bounty kicked off at 7 p.m. Wednesday, gathering a field of 222 players. At just past 6 a.m., Nick Nickoletopoulos eliminated his final opponent to claim the title and a prize of CA$6,998.
The win marks Nickoletopoulos’ eighth career live-recorded tournament cash according to The Hendon Mob, all of which have come at Playground Poker Club. It is, however, not his largest, as Nickoletopoulos placed fifth in a 2012 $2,100 Deepstack event for CA$12,000.
