Dmitry Chop bested an all-Russian final table to win the partypoker Million Main Event for $225,000.
The $1,100 buy in event attracted 1,170 entrants to generate a huge $1,134,900 prize, which smashed the tournament's $1 million guarantee and also became the biggest event ever held at the newly opened Sochi Casino and Resort.
The event began with two online opening days at partypoker on March 12 and 19. The remaining three opening days took place live at the casino March 23-25.
Many big names were in attendance for the event including partypoker Ambassadors Sam Trickett, Jan-Peter Jachtmann and Natalia Breviglieri.
