Scott Rist – Event 29: $600 Omaha 8-or-Better $100,000 Guarantee – $29,297
The first multi-day Omaha event of the DeepStack Championship Series brought out 274 steel-wheelers to compete for the $100,000 guaranteed prize pool. Scott Rist entered Day 2 as the chip leader and finishes the tournament inside the winner’s circle.
Rist’s path to victory took him on a few ups and downs as he battled against the field. Sergey Zaprorozhets was the chip leader for most of the final table but Rist hung with him and never gave in. Rist survived a few all-ins to stay alive and took the lead heads up after picking off a Zaprorzhets bluff. A few hands later, Rist sealed the deal to collect the $29,297 first-place prize.
This is the first win for Rist at The Venetian and we hope to see him back for more Omaha events this summer.

Sergey Zaprorozhets
Heads up play between Sergey Zaporozhets and Scott Rist swung back and forth due to the high limits. Rist caught a Zaporozhets bluff and then finished him off a few hands later to win the title.
Rist raised and Zaporozhets three-bet. Rist called and fielded bets on the 10♥8♦4♣ flop, K♠ turn;, and 9♠ river. Rist’s K♥Q♥6♥2♠ was good after Zaporozhets mucked.
The final hand featured Zaporozhets getting his last bet in the middle on a 8♠5♠2♠ flop. Rist had a flush Q♥10♠6♠2♠ and Zaporozhets was drawing almost dead with J♣J♥10♣9♣. The 4♥ turn sealed it and Rist wins Event 29.

Three-handed play did not last past 20 minutes as Terrence Hasloo exited promptly in third place.
Hasloo was all-in for a bet preflop and Sergey Zaporozhets along with Scott Rist had Hasloo at risk.
Zaporozhets turned over a wheel and Hasloo’s hand went into the muck.
Rist and Zaporozhets made a deal before heads up play started. Both locked up $23,500 and left $5,797 to play for.

Yuebin Guo
Yuebin Guo’s stack swung all over the place in the Event 29 final table and the last stop was zero. Guo lost a pot to Sergey Zaporozhets and then was all-in for less than a big bet the next hand.
After the 10♠4♦2♣J♣5♦ board was dealt, Zaporozhets rolled over A♣10♦9♥3♣ for the wheel. Guo peeled over his cards and then mucked.
Terrence Hasloo is the short stack to start three-handed play with 675,000.

Scott Rist
Sergey Zaporozhets was in the lead for most of the Event 29 final table but that title now belongs to the start of final table chip leader Scott Rist. Rist found river value from Yuebin Guo and took down a meaty pot.
Guo raised the cutoff and Rist defended his big blind. Rist check-called on the 7♥3♠2♣ flop, Q♣ turn, and then check-raised to Q♦ river. Guo paid off the raise and Rist turned over 4♣4♦3♣3♥ for a full house. The cards of Guo went into the muck and Rist took the pot.
Scott Rist – 2,100,000
Yuebin Guo – 725,000
