The final six players battled for a little while before they came to an agreement for a six-way deal, slightly modifying the numbers from an ICM chop.

At that point, John Gorsuch had a massive chip lead, with more than 3x as many chips as anyone else, and as chipleader, he wins the title, the trophy, and the $3,500 seat into the Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open Championship that begins on Friday.

These were the chip counts at the time of the deal:

1.  John Gorsuch  –  3,335,000  (56 bb)
2.  Steven Westerholt  –  1,095,000  (18 bb)
3.  Eric Kolodny  –  960,000  (16 bb)
4.  Tuan Phan  –  760,000  (13 bb)
5.  Louis Leo IV  –  640,000  (11 bb)
6.  Theo Lawson  –  505,000  (8 bb)

And these are their modified payouts:

1st:  John Gorsuch  –  $8,000 + $3,500 Championship Seat + RRPO Trophy
2nd:  Steven Westerholt  –  $6,000
3rd:  Eric Kolodny  –  $6,000
4th:  Tuan Phan  –  $4,646
5th:  Louis Leo IV  –  $4,546
6th:  Theophilus Lawson  –  $4,134

Stay tuned for a recap from this event, which will be posted later tonight.
