The final starting flight in Event #7 $565 COLOSSUS No-Limit Hold'em at the 2018 World Series of Poker drew a total of 2,855 entries, but just 133 bagged chips when play ended after 18 30-minute levels. Broutee Benshamin leads the way among the Day 1f survivors with 450,000.

The fourth annual running of the World Series of Poker's $565 buy-in Colossus wrapped up late Thursday night, with Brazilian restaurant owner Roberly Felicio coming from behind to defeat Sang Liu for the bracelet and the $1 million first-place prize.

Felicio, whose only previous cash at the WSOP was a 501st showing in last year's Monster Stack, had a loud and supportive rail, despite having only one friend in Las Vegas with him. Although strangers, his fellow countrymen cheered him on to victory.

'That was the best part,' Felicio told WSOP reporters. 'I came here to Vegas with only one friend and being here, I had a lot of Brazilians cheering for me and also some professionals. I think that was the difference heads-up. When I was down, I would look at the rail and the people that are there cheering for me. I'm sure that is what made the difference for me to get the title.'

Of course, a little luck doesn't hurt either.

Sang Liu was just one card away from the win, holding J10 on a board of J73Kagainst Felicio's J8. Unfortunately for him, the river was the 8, giving Felicio two pair and a commanding chip lead.

Liu ultimately earned $500,000 for his runner-up finish, a slight victim of a top-heavy prize structure that awarded Felicio twice as much for the win.

The reason for the payout discrepancy was the $1 million guarantee for first place, and a disappointing turnout of just 13,070. While that field size is undoubtedly one of the largest in WSOP history, it's a far cry from the first three showings of Colossus, which saw 18,054 (2017), 21,613 (2016), 22,374 (2015) entries.

This year's Colossus was run concurrently with a $365 buy-in online bracelet event, a $365 buy-in pot-limit Omaha event, and a $1,100 MSPT event as part of the Venetian's DeepStack Championship Poker Series that saw 4,411 entries.

Here is a look at the final table results.

Although it has been going on since October 9, it could be honestly said that the 2018 World Series of Poker Europe got off to its FULL start on Sunday. Action was fervid in the King's Casino in Rozvadov, Czech Republic, as the COLOSSUS worked its way down to the final table and Event #2, the €1500 Pot Limit Omaha tournament, kicked off its Day 1 action.

Event #1 – €500 No Limit Hold'em COLOSSUS – Day 2

For the first time, the eight flights of the European COLOSSUS came together for play on Sunday. Officially known as Day 2, the 296 survivors from the 2992 entries cracked open their bags with every player assured of a €1285 payday. The real goal of all the survivors, however, was on Monday's final table and the championship of the COLOSSUS, which would give out the first bracelet of the 2018 WSOP Europe and a first-place prize of €203,820.

To be honest, you would have to have a near encyclopedic knowledge of the European poker scene to be able to pick the players out of the crowd, but there were a few familiar names among the runners. Allen Kessler, Jan Bendik and defending WSOP Player of the Year Chris Ferguson were a few of the familiar names on the roster, but they were all long gone by the time the final table was determined. Once Klaus Schiefer was eliminated in eleventh place by Wojciech Wyrebski, Schiefer's Q♠ 9♠ failing to find any magic against Wyrebski's A-Q off suit, Wyrebski seized the chip lead heading to Monday's final table.

1. Wojciech Wyrebski (Poland), 11.875 million
2. Hannes Neurauter (Germany), 11.825 million
3. Darius Glinski (Poland), 9.35 million
4. Krasimir Yankov (Bulgaria), 8.625 million
5. Tamir Segal (Israel), 8.5 million
6. Bjorn Bouwmans (Netherlands), 5.85 million
7. Nelio Gatta (Italy), 5.0 million
8. Francesco Delfoco (Italy), 4.85 million
9. Aksei Ayguen (Belgium), 4.725 million
10. Flavio Decataldo (Italy), 4.625 million

Event #2 – €1500 Six Handed Pot Limit Omaha – Day 1

There were a few more familiar faces on the floor for the opening day of the Six Handed Pot Limit Omaha event. With a €200,000 guarantee on the tournament, slightly more than 133 entries had to be received for that guarantee to be met. The resulting 221 entries more than crushed that number, building a prize pool of €318,074. 34 players will take home a piece of that pie, with the eventual champion picking up a shiny WSOP bracelet and a €82,280 payday.

The nature of Pot Limit Omaha – even if it is a full table and not the six-handed variety played in this event – is for the chips to be in action. That was nowhere more evident than on one particular table that had only two players (two players had to be seated for them to be dealt). With a J-10-8-4 flop and turn, James Bullimore moved his stack all in against Andreas Hildebrand, who called the bet. Bullimore was pushing with his A-Q against Hildebrand's pocket Queens and, once the river blanked, he was out of the tournament after only 15 minutes of play – technically. That's because there was a single reentry available for players, which Bullimore exercised and went back to work – just not at Hildebrand's table (for the record, Bullimore was able to make it through Day 1 with a stack just off the Top Ten; Hildebrand was not so fortunate).

Such gamble was seen all around the King's Casino as the players looked to build their 30K stacks into a veritable fortress for moving on to Day 2. By the time the carnage was done for the day, such notable names as Anthony Zinno, Dutch Boyd, Jeff Madsen and Bertrand Grospellier were on the rail. But there were some that survived and will be looking to increase their stacks on Monday, including Cord Garcia (44K), Roland Israelashvili (68K) and 2018 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure champion Maria Lampropulos (115K). They will be a part of the 29 players who are looking up at the Top Ten:

1. Milad Oghabian (Netherlands), 457,500
2. Shaun Deeb (USA), 373,000
3. Van Tiep Nguyen (Czech Republic), 364,500
4. Chin Wei Lim (Malaysia), 324,000
5. Giuliano Bendinelli (Italy), 311,000
6. Gianluca Speranza (Italy), 259,000
7. Michael Soyza (Malaysia), 240,500
8. Darko Stojanovic (France), 228,500
9. Hao Tian (China), 226,000
10. Antti Marttinen (Finland), 223,000 Adversity 45 poker.

You may have noted Deeb's name in the Day 2 roster and this is significant. If the four-time WSOP bracelet winner is able to cash in this tournament – and especially if he goes deep, as his current second place status implies – he can put a virtual lock on the 2018 WSOP Player of the Year award. With only eight more tournaments following this event, it is unlikely that any player would be able to emerge from the pack to catch Deeb and deny him the title.
