The $250 Frenzy in the Playground Poker Spring Classic presented by partypoker.net has just come to a close after 35 levels spanning over 3 days of poker. At the end of it all, the last man standing was Jaroslaw Zbigniew Jaskiewicz!
Jaroslaw remained near the top of the leaderboard for most of the later parts of Day 2, and came into Day 3 as a top 5 stack. He scored a big double up with pocket kings early in the night, and used that momentum to carry him onto the final table – where he put on an impressive game.
A total of 1,248 entries took place over 6 Day 1 starting flights, and once play fell 3-handed, an ICM chip-chop was proposed – and accepted. The payout awarded $37,477 to Simon Pin-Disle for his chip-lead stack, while Jaroslaw ($31,884) and Zheng-Yi Xie ($31,640) took an almost even share. The tournament set aside an extra $5,000 for the eventual winner, along with a Playground Poker Spring Classic Champion’s Trophy, and play remained very solid amongst the final three even with the deal locked in.
Jaroslaw eventually built some momentum, and along with his mountains of chips, he began heads-up with a commanding lead – to cruise his way to victory.
Congratulations!
The $250 Frenzy Champion: Jaroslaw Zbigniew Jaskiewicz – $36,884.00
The $250 Frenzy Runner-Up: Simon Pin-Disle – $37,477.00
