On Saturday night, the 2020 World Series of Poker Online Event #11: $500 No-Limit Hold'em Turbo Deepstack 6-Handed attracted 1,081 players who rebought 610 times. As a result, the 1,691-entry field generated a $760,950 prize pool, and after seven hours of play, it was Belarus’ Raman “Acrogum” Afanasenka walking away with a $128,601 first-place prize and his first gold bracelet.
Afanasenka’s victory came in impressive fashion as he topped a final table that contained three former bracelet winners, including two-time winner Chance “BingShui” Kornuth. Afanasenka and Kornuth squared off in heads-up play, and while both held the chip lead at different points, the former ultimately prevailed to deny Kornuth, who had previously won the 2018 WSOP Event #63: WSOP.
