The team at PokerGO kicked off the eighth season of their popular Poker Masters series this weekend and the first two winners have already hit the payout window.
The series, which includes 10 events, will run through September 28 — when the top player across all tournaments will win the famed purple jacket. All ten tournaments will be no-limit hold’em — with the buy-ins increasing before the $50,000 finale.
Tamasauskas is Here
Event #1 kicked off what might be the emergence of one of poker’s next final bosses. Vladas Tamasauskas came from near the bottom of the leaderboard in the $10,000 event to win the top prize of $239,000.
