“Tchelo Shelby” Keeps Sunday Million Title in Brazil for Another Week
Brazilian grinder “Tchelo Shelby” emerged victorious in the latest $109 Sunday Million Phased King’s Bounty event, part of the ongoing Sunday Million Season on PokerStars. They outlasted a field of 9,954 entrants, firing a single $109 bullet to secure a $85,320 payday, including bounty payments.
The final table proved challenging for several Team PokerStars members. Lasse “Wistern” Lauritsen, Fintan “easywithaces” Hand, and Sebastian “peace&loove” Huber busted without cashing. Marle “MarlzTV” Spragg and husband Benjamin “Spraggy” Spragg made the money but fell short, with Marle exiting shortly after the bubble and Spraggy finishing 992nd.
The final table results were:
1st: Tchelo Shelby (Brazil) – $85,320
2nd: BurlacuC95 (Romania) – $66,674
3rd: Ipedrov (Brazil) – $44,009
4th: Zero-Outer (Finland) – $31,206
5th: Pedroadota (Brazil) – $22,934
6th: ChrisFreeFlow (Ukraine) – $13,456
7th: ThugWaffle (Brazil) – $11,178
8th: hownorez (Austria) – $9,097
9th: it5tricky (United Kingdom) – $6,684
“Tchelo Shelby” and “BurlacuC95” reached heads-up, with the latter holding a sizeable chip lead initially. However, a key double-up for “Tchelo Shelby” with trip sixes proved pivotal, as they gradually seized control. The final hand saw “BurlacuC95” all-in with ace-trey against “Tchelo Shelby’s” ace-queen, and no help arrived on the board.
With this victory, Brazil claims back-to-back Sunday Million titles after Dalton “daltonhb” Hobold’s win in the inaugural Phased event last month. The Sunday Million Season continues until April 8th, culminating in a special $6 million guaranteed 19th Anniversary event on April 6th.
