Emerges victorious in fourth day of unscheduled extended play
Artur Rudziankov has become the second Czech WSOP bracelet winner in history, winning Event 58, the $5,000 No-Limit Hold’Em for a $395,918 payday.
Rudziankov, a Belarusian native who has lived in the Czech Republic for the past 19 years, defeated Prats Garcia in aggressive heads-up play.
This win more than doubles Rudziankov’s eleven previous WSOP career cashes, a tally he hopes to boost in the upcoming WSOP Main Event.
Event 58 drew a field of 1,763, resulting in a prize pool of $2,380,050 which saw 265 players in the money.
