The only PLO event on the Poker Masters schedule brought a specialist laden field with $25,000 WSOP runner-up Ben Yu among the finalists. Joining them was PLO pro Jonathan Depa, Dan Shak, and Event 1 sixth-place finisher Isaac Haxton.
Relive the entire final table here:
Shak exited in sixth following a long trudge at the start of final table play. Adams followed close behind with Yu sending him off. The 90 points earned by Adams gives him 510 total and a sizable lead over David Peters and Lehr for second place.
No back-to-back, but @badams78 picks up valuable #PokerMasters points to increase his Purple Jacket lead.

Lehr and Depa wound up in heads up play after Haxton and Yu were felted right after the other. Haxton picked up 120 points for fourth place and is up to 180 points overall in the Poker Masters series.
Three final table finishes and @badams78 is out in front.

A double up for Lehr at the start of the match all but clinched the title for the two-time WSOP bracelet winner. A few hands later, victory was Lehr’s and he picked up valuable points in the chase for the Purple Jacket.
From thinking it was over to winning Event 3 of the #PokerMasters.
