Notable Information

Only one tournament finished its day with a winner on Monday, and that was a super-turbo structured $1,500 NLHE that was Event 56.

The entire tournament played down in 15.5 hours, and the finale was a loud one. The Brazilian rail was strong for Fernando Viana, but it was the group of German friends supporting Jonas Lauck who eventually outlasted them. Lauck admitted that a loud rail made it tough to concentrate, but he was set on winning and did just that.

Lauck has been an online and live poker pro, but this achievement was a big one for him. “It wasn’t the biggest cash, but the bracelet is a big achievement that I wanted to have. For me, it was a special win because I was once heads-up and I lost. I wanted to have this bracelet, and it feels very good.”

32-year-old German pro Jonas Lauck wins $260,335 and his first career bracelet in Event #56 of the 2019 @WSOP, $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Super Turbo Bounty. https://t.co/UHBuOsAqhq pic.twitter.com/uguR9VWdbc
