The PLO game is over after the final two players decided on an ICM chop at the end of the night. It was just over 12 hours after they started the game, though runner-up Garett Maybery said he was a max-late entry today.
They had to make their way through a pretty stacked final table that included Ronnie Dattani, Myles Budd, Andy Truong, and Zeyu Huang. In the early running of the FT, third-place finisher Budd had the lead, but by the time it was five-handed, York had the big stack and he held it for the rest of the way.
This is York’s second recorded win and it’s pretty clear he likes the Omaha games. His first win (and first recorded cash) was in a 5 card Omaha event last October. York pocketed $14,045 in the ICM deal with the biggest stack while Maybery secured an extra $1,500 or so with a bump up to $12,918 from the original 2nd-place payout of $11,484.
Maybery jokingly commented after that deal that he only made it because he “doesn’t give a F about the picture.”
