The Powerfest continues all this month on partypoker, and has just crowned another big winner. Christoph Vogelsang emerged victorious in the $25,500 No-Limit Hold’em Super High Roller Event, overcoming a field of 58 total entries to secure the title and the first-place prize of $469,691. The German high stakes regular has more than $25 million in career live tournament earnings, with millions more won online.
There were big names of poker all over the final table, with David Peters finishing 5th for $96,574 and Shawn Daniels 4th for $130,438.
Vogelsang entered three-handed play as the short stack, but doubled through Lefrancois early on to close the gap considerably. Lefrancois ended up finishing third after he ran top pair into the two pair of Sami Kelopuro. The two got all of the chips in on the turn and Lefrancois was unable to come from behind. He cashed for $188,132, while Kelopuro took more than a 3:1 chip lead into heads-up play.
