Event 55: $400 Colossus No Limit Hold'emWinner Anatoliy ZyrinRunners 9399Paid 1391Final Table 9

With nearly 10,000 entries to a $400 tournament, you don't expect to find bracelet-winners in the shake-up, but you'd be wrong. Brett Apter was 26th, Barbara Enright 25th and Carlos Chang 18th. Anatoliy Zyrin outlasted everyone, though, to win his second bracelet.
You might also not expect our selectors to find point-scorers in this event, but one of them found two!

You can't keep Chainsaw out of the news. He got irritated by a slow player and made a couple of dodgy tweets.
He has had plenty of feedback, generally supporting his stance on slow play, but split between those whose call him xenophobic and those who label this an overreaction.

This was Ben's 10th cash of the Series, though only his second final table. Joanne "JJ" Liu, who was 13th, has also cashed 10 times, with just one final, but Jake Schwartz seems to be showing up in everything and this was his 12th cash, with an amazing five finals, finishing 2nd, 3rd twice, 5th and 7th.

Ben Yu, who used to be a pro break-dancer, found time to show some of his favourite moves to runner-up Nikita Kuznetsov.

Brian Yoon won his fourth bracelet, and by far his cheapest one, worth only $240k. His previous wins have all been stonkers. He beat fields of 4,700 and 6,700 to win the Little Drop for One Drop for $664k and the Monster Stack for $1.094m, plus a $5k for $633. He has also cashed in five of the last nine Main Events, with most of them being very high finishes - 58th, 60th, 41st and 111th. Lately, he has veered towards 2-7, with three of his last four cashes coming in this game.
Wil Wilkinson, who finished third, is a No Limit 2-7 specialist, but has also cashed the Main Event five times, including being 17th, 25th and 51st. He only has 17 cashes in total, with five in MEs and seven in No Limit 2-7. Wil has no bracelet, but could been a name on everyone's lips if a few cards had landed differently, with finishes in 2nd, 3rd (x 3), 4th, 5th and 7th, with the 5th being in the $50k Players Championship.
Co-incidentally, Jordan Siegel in 7th has also cashed the Main Event four times.
