Sean Perry has won again on the PokerGO Tour (PGT). On Friday, last season’s third-place finisher in the PGT Player of the Year race found his way to the winner’s circle of Event #2: $10,000 No-Limit Hold’em at the 2022 PokerGO Cup, picking up $200,000 in prize money.

“It feels nice,” Perry said. “I have to say, this is probably the most fun I’ve had winning a tournament.”

The final table was certainly an entertaining one. There was plenty of action taking place along with friendly banter between the players, especially Perry and Bryn Kenney, who were the driving forces behind much of it.

“We were definitely gambling, but this tournament is even more exciting,” Perry said. “I was at three big blinds early in and I was telling everyone that I would make the money. Then I made the money. Even at the final table, I was down to two big blinds and somehow came back and won. That’s always nice. Bryn Kenney was giving action, I was giving action, it was a lot of fun. I just ran well. We were playing the nine-four off game. In a $100,000 event, I bluffed it all off to Nick Petrangelo with nine-four off, so that’s why we were doing it, and it was a good time.”

With four players remaining, Scott Ball had raised from under the gun to 200,000 with the blinds at 50,000-100,000 with a 100,000 big blind ante. Perry then reraised from the small blind with nine-four off. Action got back to Ball and he called off his stack of 1,825,000 with ace-king. Perry flopped a nine and rivered a four to finish with two pair and win the pot.

That hand gave Perry the chip lead entering three-handed play and he went on to seal the deal from there, with Kenney busting third and Cary Katz falling in second place.

“I just am lucky, man,” Perry said. “That’s what it is.”
