Samuel Vousden’s giant payday is a result not only of his impeccable campaign but also of the great success the GGMillion$ had this week. The competition registered 267 entries, comfortably surpassing the guarantee of US$2 million and reaching a prize pool of US$2,589,900.
Thus, the payouts became more substantial, and Samuel Vousden pocketed exactly US$504,972 upon confirming the title. In a quick heads-up, he overcame German player Hannes Jeschka, who walked away with US$389,387. Arie Muller completed the podium, earning US$300,258.
