The $2,650 buy-in Big 4 event had a special twist to separate it from the other three. This one was a freeze-out with no re-entries allowed.

One player, one bullet.

That meant it would create a special final table because each had to be careful with their one entry.

The nine final table members have combined to earn $20.8 million with $9.5 of that courtesy of Jason Koon. Five of the remaining players have earned at least $1 million in their career with Alex Foxen’s $792,000 close enough when you include his online winnings. Koon is making his second consecutive SHRPO Big 4 final table and is the reigning SHRPO Champion for one more day.
