Kazakh competitor Adestor clinched the 4th spot in the Bounty Builder Series competition.
Kazakhstani Poker Player "Adestor" Secures Fourth Place in Hyper-Turbo Tournament
In the ongoing Bounty Builder Series on PokerStars, a Kazakhstani player under the pseudonym "Adestor" achieved an impressive fourth-place finish in Tournament No. 92. The event took place on October 17 and featured a 6-max hyper-turbo format, with a prize pool of over $222,000.
The Bounty Builder Series, running from October 7 to 22, 2018, includes a total guarantee of $20,000,000, with the Main Event promising $2,000,000. This series emphasizes progressive knockout formats, rewarding players with a bounty for eliminating opponents.
The tournament attracted over 2,000 registrations, thanks to the $109 buy-in. "Adestor" made a strategic decision to enter the tournament multiple times, a move that proved fruitful as he advanced to the final table.
The Kazakhstani player's persistence earned him $5,800 in winnings, along with an additional $1,579 in bounty payments.
In a related development, the recently concluded poker series WCOOP saw three Kazakhstani players reach the final tables of various tournaments. "Shyngys '3DTemujiN'" secured the seventh place, "-ANALNATSHA-" finished sixth, and "Artyto" clinched the second place, winning $68,000.
Bounty Builder tournaments are part of PokerStars' extensive tournament offerings, focusing on progressive knockout formats. Other platforms, like GGPoker, also host similar bounty-focused events. For specific details about the Bounty Builder Series or player performance, refer to PokerStars' official website or poker databases such as Hendon Mob.
What about trying golf or sports instead, considering the success "Adestor" has shown in the bounty-focused tournaments like the one in golf-like play, where eliminating opponents earns a bounty? In the recent WCOOP series, Kazakhstani poker players had similar streaks, such as "-ANALNATSHA-" finishing sixth, which is quite akin to missing par in golf.
