2022 May Deep Stack Poker Series
Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino
Hollywood, Florida
Event 1
$400 Deep Stack No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
$100,000 Guaranteed
Entries: 1,083
Prize Pool: $362,805
May 19 – 22, 2022
The 2022 May Deep Stack Poker Series opened with a $400 Deep Stack tournament that ran three starting flights and had a slow structure. After a long Day 2 and tough final table, Dennis Rodriguez took the title for $49,000 after a five-way deal.
The tournament featured a $100,000 guarantee and the 1,083 entries smashed that number to create a prize pool worth $362,805. The last 136 players made the money and they burst the bubble within an hour of coming back for Day 2.
We were unable to determine a champion before play was halted at 3 am on Day 2 and 14 players returned for more action on Monday. Rodriguez came back for the extra 13th out of those 14 but he quickly moved up as players dropped.
Mike Beasley began the final table with a big chip lead but Rodriguez chipped away, took out two players, and had a huge stack when the last five players decided to divide up the remaining prize money and call it a day.
Rodriguez is coming off a 10th-place finish in the RunGood Poker Series Main Event in Coconut Creek and his biggest score came with a fourth-place finish in the WPTDeepstacks Immokalee Main Event we hosted here in 2018.
Congrats to Dennis and thanks to our players for a great start to the series.
