On Thursday night, the 2020 World Series of Poker Online Event #16:500 No Limit Holdham Turbo attracted 1,044 players who had repurchased 484. A prize of $687,600 from the 1,528-entry field was awarded, and after just 7.5 hours of play, it was Terrell "Hijahursla" Cheatham as the last player to have $116,204 and a gold bracelet.

Little is known about Cheatham, except that he is originally from Akron, Ohio, but currently resides in Las Vegas. According to Hendon Mob, he won the WSOP Daily Deepstack in 2014 and has $24,836 in real-time tournament revenue, including a career-high $7,880. He also ranked 106th in last year's WSOP Big 50 with $7,169.

After Eric "circleball" Baldwin bubbled in 249th place, the bust outs came at a furious pace and included Ryan "im.sorry" Torgersen 230th - $687.60, Jason "haderade" Somerville 189th - $756.36, Kevin "ImaLuckSac" MacPhee 121st - $962.64, Daniel "DNegs" Negreanu 86th - $1,168.92, Philip "tomte" Yeh 38th - $2,337.84, Blake "shampainpopn" Whittington 24th - $3,506.76, and final table bubble boy Ryan "WHOSYOURDODD" Dodd 10th - $7,013.52.

Lev "Methinks" Milman, who was a chess champion in his younger days, began the final table with a big chip lead, nearly 2:1 over his next closest competitor. James "cbmezz99" Messeroll was the first final table casualty losing ace-six suited to the pocket jacks of Cheatham, and then Milman extended his lead by winning a 10-million chip pot when his pocket tens held against the ace-king of Phillip "AvonB" Rhodes.

Jeremy "http401" Govert exited in seventh place running ace-nine into Marc "Mojoesmarc" Bernal's suited Big Slick, and then Daniel "StayActive" Chan, who began the final table as the short stack, fell after losing with ace-six to the ace-king of Bernal.

Andrea "Andrewbull88" Buonocore hit the rail in fifth place after running pocket sixes into the kings of Bernal, who in turn bowed out in forth losing ten-nine suited to the ace-jack of Cheatham. 파워볼사이트

Cheatham then got it in on the flop with a flush draw against Milman's trips aces, and a river heart allowed him to double big into the chip lead. Not long after, Milman ran ace-queen suited smack dab into Cheatham's two red aces to fall in third place.

Cheatham took 33.3 million into heads-up play against Julian "Julian" Parmann, who had 12.4 million. Parmann, a professional poker player for the past 14 years with $980,026 in live tournament earnings, put up a good fight, but with the blinds so big, he eventually shoved his last 10 big blinds with ace-trey against "Heezahustla's" ace-deuce. A deuce appeared on the flop and Parmann had to settle for second place, good for $71,648.
