Here\u2019s a look at the action of the past week.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n After over a week’s delay the final four faced off in the Heads Up Championship.

He defeated Latvia\u2019s Aleksejs Ponakovs<\/strong> for the title.<\/span><\/p>\n Adrian Mateos<\/strong> and Daniel Soltys<\/strong> finished in third and fourth, but still brought home $155,389<\/strong> each.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The total prize pool for this event reached $1.5 million<\/strong> with 161 players entering the competition.

Mateos continued to be a driving force in this series with another final table appearance.<\/span><\/p>\n He finished eighth for $196,476 after appearing in the final four of the heads-up event.<\/span><\/p>\n The Colossus is aptly named after the huge fields created. This event again lived up to those epic proportions with a player pool of 10,903 entries<\/strong>.

Daniel Negreanu<\/strong> continues to live stream most of the events in the series and that included this tournament.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Dmitry Yurasov<\/strong>, of Russia<\/a>, landed his second bracelet and $92,711.
