ARUBA CHAMPION
$2 560 000 prize pool in island tourney
Another up-and-coming young poker gun, Devon Miller (21) entered the big earner lists earlier this month after winning the grand prize of $744 960 in the UltimateBet Aruba Poker Classic.
The young American player saw off a starting field of 512 hopefuls in three days of intense poker play at the Radisson resort on the tropical island, celebrating his win by diving headlong and fully clothed into the resort swimming pool.
The final table came down to Devon Miller, Jason Atwood, Jared Brintz, Terry Eischens, Cliff Josephy, and Joe Sebok. Miller started the final table as the chip leader, but he still had to fight for over an hour for the win when it came to the final heads-up against Cliff Josephy aka Jonny Bax, who was short-stacked but determined.
In the money players fought for a share of a record prize pool for the event of $2 560 000 prize pool, with the big money going to the following:
1st Devon Miller $744 960
2nd Cliff Josephy $446 975
3rd Terry Eischens $235 905
4th Jared Brintz $136 565
5th Joe Sebok $99 330
6th Jason Atwood $69 530
