Jour 3 terminé
Steffen Sontheimer est un peu plus âgé que Fedor Holz mais il vient de réaliser une série digne de son compatriote. L'allemand comptait 3,5 millions de dollars de gains en carrière avant la semaine du Poker Masters, il a encaissé 2,7 millions en cinq tournois high-roller !
La première édition du Poker Masters comptait 4 tournois à 50.000$ et une finale à 100.000$... The Goose, le surnom de Sontheimer, a réalisé 4 tables finales et gagné deux fois. La seule fois où il n'a pas fait dans l'argent, sur l'Event #3, Steffen a fait la bulle (8e) !
Vainqueur de l'Event #2 pour 900.000$ et de l'Event #5 pour 1.512.000$, Sontheimer a empoché 306.000$ pour sa quatrième place sur l'Event #1 et 117.000$ pour sa 5e place sur l'Event #4. Ces résultats lui ont permis de terminer en tête du général et de repartir avec la Veste qui fait office de trophée.
Face aux meilleurs joueurs du monde, l'Allemand a régalé. Il compte désormais 31 places payées depuis 2015, dont 18 sur des tournois High-Roller. Sontheimer a établi son nouveau record de gains en carrière, il avait encaissé 1,2 million de dollars en mai dernier lors d'un Super High Roller à 100.000$, ici même à l'ARIA de Las Vegas.

Disputé sur trois jours, l'ultime événement du Poker Masters ne concernait que les six derniers survivants. Il a fallu 5 heures de jeu pour que le vainqueur du WPT Bay 101 Shooting Stars ne rende les armes. Shortstack, Stefan Schillhabel s'incline sur un 60-40 contre Justin Bonomo. L'Allemand a cumulé 486 000$ de gains lors de la semaine.?
Bonomo l'a ensuite rejoint dans le rail, éliminé par le futur runner-up du tournoi, Christian Christner. Il encaisse 216.000$ pour sa 5e place.
Chistner ne va mettre que trois mains de plus pour se positionner et sortir Seth Davies. L'Américain, qui n'a participé qu'au tournoi à 100.000$ de la semaine, s'incline sur un 60-40 et repart avec un chèque de 324.000$.
Dernier joueur à pouvoir empêcher Sontheimer de gagner le classement général, Fedor Holz va finalement rendre son tablier sur un lancer de pièce. Troisième du tournoi de clôture pour 504.000$, l'Allemand a pris 1.054.000$ sur la série. Malgré quelques rebuys ici et là, le Wonderkid termine largement dans le vert sur les 5 tournois disputés à l'ARIA.
Assuré de gagner le général, Sontheimer a débuté le head's up en étant derrière. Le duel contre son compatriote et ami va pourtant tourner à son avantage : "C'était vraiment intéressant de jouer contre lui car je sais qu'il est plus fort que moi en head's up. Il m'a battu comme u champion", a concédé Christner après sa défaite.
