PCA Main Event: The title for the Bulgarian Dimitar Danchev
After six days of competition, the Pokerstars Caribbean Adventure had finally its finalists. The final table of the edition 2013 of the PCA Main Event began with talented players who can win the title, who are Joao Nogueira, Dimitar Danchev, Andrey Shatilov, Owen Crowe, Jerry Wong, Jonathan Roy, Joel Micka and Yann Dion. At the start of the final, the American Jerry Wong held the chip lead with a big stack of 7,400,000 chips. But from the beginning of the day, Jerry Wong began losing most of his stack, 2 million chips against Dimitar Danchev. Meanwhile, Joel Micka took the chip lead with more than 8 million chips and ended up alongside Dimitar Danchev. The final round really began when players left one by one the table, leaving only Dimitar Danchev and Joel Micka fighting for the head's up of this poker tournament. The short stack Joao Nogueira was the first player to leave the final table after having been beaten by Joel Micka. He pocketed $ 165,900 for his eighth place.
Everything went quickly then in the poker room of Atlantis with the elimination of Yann Dion ($ 230,000), Andrey Shatilov ($ 325,000), Owen Crowe ($ 435,000) and Jonathan Roy ($ 560,000). At this stage of the tournament, Jerry Wong was the best placed until Dimitar Danchev put the three remaining players at the same level. Wong lost his advantage and became the short stack before Micka gives him the final hit. Micka began the head's up with 20,195,000 chips against 8,875,000 for Danchev but the latter has taken quickly the top lead before winning the title and $ 1,859,000. Joel Micka pocketed $ 1.19 million while Jerry Wong settled for his third place of $ 725,000.
