The Survivors

We held our Winter 2026 Championship Tournament on Saturday afternoon but one tournament just didn’t seem like enough so we ran a Survivor Tournament in the evening for those that didn’t qualify and those of us that didn’t have the Championship Tournament go the way we planned. Our $55 buy-in Survivor Tournament brought out 48 players and 22 of them took a rebuy along the way. With a total of 70 entries, 7 players were set to receive $500 and the remaining 41 players were set to go home disappointed.

At our final table, with 8 players remaining, several short stacks fought to avoid being the dreaded bubble boy. That distinction went to Rob Ric. (Afton, NY) who fell just shy of a hefty payout. The remaining 7 players, each took home $500. This included Tom Pet. (Greene, NY) who logged his first cash at 607poker.com and Mike Bri. (Ithaca, NY) who ended a recent dry spell of cashes. Lona Whe. (Ithaca, NY) made up for a disappointing Winter 2026 Season with a Survivor cash, along with Laura Dir. (Johnson City, NY) who logged her third cash with 607poker.com. Jason Sho. (Arkansas) surprised nobody with yet another finish in the money. Paul Ste. (Binghamton, NY) and Jeff Smi. (Marathon, NY) continued their strong finishes in the Winter 2026 Season with a couple of cashes as well.
