WPT Prime Playground Championship Final Table Results
| Place | Player | Prize (CAD) | Prize (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Yunkyu Song | $241,620 | $164,251 |
| 2 | Kevin Rivest | $152,000 | $109,852 |
| 3 | Alexander Wong | $113,000 | $81,666 |
| 4 | Zeyu Huang | $85,000 | $61,430 |
| 5 | Senthuran Vijayaratnam | $64,000 | $46,253 |
| 6 | Rene Gauvin | $49,000 | $35,413 |
| 7 | Hayk Hartounian | $37,500 | $27,108 |
| 8 | David Quang | $29,000 | $20,958 |
| 9 | Matwej Troitschanski | $22,900 | $16,550 |
When the final 16 players returned to action at noon local time, each was guaranteed CAD $12,700 ($9,178 USD) in prize money. Hayk Hartounian and Day 2 chip leader Kevin Rivest sat atop the counts, and it didn’t take long for the first elimination to occur when the two black aces of Rishi Makkar were cracked by the queen-ten of Hartounian, who flopped top pair and turned two pair.
From there, the eliminations mounted as Baron Ha (15th – CAD $15,400), Michael Farrow (14th – CAD $15,400), Raymond Carter (13th – CAD $15,400), Scott Carragher (12th – CAD $18,700), Robin Wezelenburg (11th – CAD $18,700), and Bradley Dudeck (10th – CAD $22,900) all exited before the final table.
After the remaining players combined down to a final table, it took but one hand for it to go from nine to right. That’s because Matwej Troitschanski got it in with an open-ended straight draw against Senthuran Vijayaratnam’s set of tens. A queen on the turn filled up Vijayaratnam and Troitschanski was ousted in ninth place for CAD $22,900.
David Quang was the next to go losing a flip with ace-king to Alexander Wong’s pocket jacks, and then Hartounian, who began the day as chip leader, fell in seventh place losing ace-jack to Big Slick.
Wong then dispatched Rene Gauvin in sixth place after the former’s ace-nine held against king-three, and Vijayaratnam followed him out the door in fifth place on Hand #38 of the final table when he ran ace-king smack dab into Zeyu Huang’s two red aces.
The four-handed battle lasted for several levels, but eventually Huang and Wong bowed out in fourth and third place respectively before Song dispatched Rivest in heads-up play when his ace-jack got lucky to outdraw ace-queen.
Song hoisted the WPT Prime trophy while Rivest had to settle for a runner-up finish and CAD $152,000 in prize money.

- The Complete Guide to Rummy: Strategies, Techniques, & Insights The combination of skill, strategy, and chance in the well-known card game rummy has enthralled players worldwide. Rummy's primary goal is to use the cards dealt to each player to create legitimate sets & sequences. While a sequence is a run of three or more consecutive cards of the same suit, a set is made up of three or four cards of the same rank but different suits. 25-04-09
- Depending on the variant being played, each player usually starts the game with a certain number of cards—typically seven or ten. A draw pile is created by placing the remaining cards face down, and a discard pile is started by turning one card face up. Each player draws a card from the draw or discard pile, after which they discard one card from their hand. When a player successfully melds all of their cards into sets and sequences that are legal, they declare Rummy and win the round. In general, players gain points for the cards they have melded and lose points for unmelded cards that are still in their possession when another player leaves the game, though scoring can change depending on the exact rules being followed. 25-04-09

- You can learn a lot about other players' hands and possible melds by keeping an eye on the cards they are picking up or discarding. You can use this information to help you decide which cards to keep and which to discard. Effective hand management is another essential component of strategy.
