The 2024 Poker Masters presented by PokerStars NAPT is now in its final stage, with seven of the eight events on its schedule reaching their conclusion. Brock Wilson was the latest winner crowned at the series. The New York native overcame a star-studded field of 76 entrants in Event #7: $15,100 No-Limit Hold’em, taking home  the trophy and $330,60. It was a wire-to-wire win for Wilson who eventually bested Michael “Texas Mike” Moncek in heads-up. The latter walked away with $216,600 for his remarkable runner-up finish in the tournament.

2024 Poker Masters Event #7: $15,100 No Limit Holdem Recap

Wilson came into this event with impressive resume featuring PGT, WPT, and WSOP Circuit wins for him. He kicked off the day with a massive chip lead with nearly two-and-a-half times more than his closest rival, Seth Davies. After eliminating Davies early on, Wilson’s dominance grew as he held 70% of the chips in play. From there on, he did not look back and went on to bust everyone but David Stamm.

The 2024 Poker Masters Event #7: $15,100 No-Limit Hold’em ran over the course of two days and drew a 76-entrant field for a prize pool of $1,140,000. The top 11 players made the money, including Alex Foxen (11th – $34,200, Victoria Livschitz (10th – $34,200), Justin Saliba (9th – $34,200), Nicholas Seward (8th – $45,600), Clemen Deng (7th – $45,600, and Kristen Foxen (6th – $57,000).

Davies was first to exit the streamed final table after he four-bet shoved Ah 3h from the button over Wilson’s  three-bet and ran into Wilson’s pocket jacks to exit in fifth place for $79,800.   

The next player to fall was David Stamm who shoved with Kc 7s and was called by Moncek with As 3s. Stamm found no help and Moncek revealed an ace, busting his opponent in fourth place ($108,300).

Three-handed play saw Moncek and John Riordan battling back-and-forth for second chip position. In one of the hands, Riordan dramatically doubled through chip leader Wilson with a straight with Ks Qc on the A-10-6-9-J board. However, he later became the short stack after losing a hand to Moncek. Shortly after that, Riordan was eliminated when he called all in from the big blind with 6d 6c against a shove from Wilson with 10c 8h. Wilson took the lead on the A-10-3 all-hearts board and remained ahead till the river, busting Riordan in third place.  Riordan took home $153,900 for his podium finish.

After eliminating Riordan, Wilson held a more than a six-to-one chip lead into heads-up against Michael Moncek and finished off his opponent quickly . On the final hand, Wilson moved all-in from the button with Kd 6d and Moncek made the call with Qc 4c. Wilson flopped a six and Moncek did not catch up from there to be eliminated in second place on a board of A-10-6-3Ac. This was Moncek’s second runner-up finish of the series and this time he earned $216k.
