Simon Britton Wins Event #14: $1,700 NLH Main Event $1M GTD
Simon Britton won the WSOPC Choctaw Durant Main Event for $208,295, defeating a 793-entry field that blew past the $1,000,000 guarantee and built a $1,091,785 prize pool with 116 places paid. The victory was especially meaningful for Britton: it was his first WSOP Circuit ring, arriving after seven runner-up finishes at the Circuit level. It was the culmination of a dominant series performance, too: Britton had already cashed in Event #1 (22nd, $950), Event #5 (9th, $1,300), Event #10 (9th, $890), Event #11 (31st, $850), and Event #15 (12th, $880) before his Main Event triumph. Chan Pelton finished runner-up for $138,800, with Alain Raad third at $96,010. The final three-handed sequence was dramatic: at Level 31 (125,000/250,000), Raad got it in from the small blind for about 2,500,000 with top pair and was drawing dead against Pelton's set of eights. Chris Staats was eliminated in fourth for $67,640 moments earlier when his shove ran into Pelton's two pair. Heads-up, Britton held a commanding 19,500,000 to 12,200,000 chip lead and ended it in three hands when his pair of tens held against Pelton's shove. Austria's Oswin Ziegelbecker finished 11th for $12,350, and Czechia's Patrik Zidek, who had also made the Mini Main money, finished 13th for $9,990. Morocco's Badr Imejjane, the most prominent international player of the series, finished 34th for $6,010. The official payout structure shows unusual prize jumps at places 11, 24 and 32, as reported by WSOP.com.
