On Monday morning, Evan Sandberg had a pair of WSOP online bracelets in his trophy cabinet. By the end of the day, he had a World Series of Poker Circuit ring to dust around as well.
After collecting his $133,841 for first place in the Event #13: $1,700 Main Event at the WSOP Circuit Lake Tahoe festival, Sandberg now has a little over $1.4 million in live cashes.
The $1,700 buy-in, no limit hold'em Main Event attracted 439 players and racked up $665,085 in the prize pool. This made up more than a third of the $1,764,246 in prizes awarded across the 18 ring events of the festival.
Fighting For First
Sandberg's battle to the top spot didn't come easily. Having spent two days fighting through a field that was 439-entries strong, Sandberg found himself at a final table with Michael Pearson.
Pearson is a solid player with form at Lake Tahoe, having taken down this exact event in 2016 and 2019.
Sandberg also had to watch out for WSOP Circuit ring winners Bilguun Odgerel and Brett Murray and Dann Turner who has a WSOP Online bracelet, five WSOP Circuit final table finishes, four WPT Deepstack final tables, and a TV bubble finish in the 2023 WPT Rolling Thunder Main Event.
Despite the strong line up, Sandberg did his best to avoid being intimidated at the final table.
“For me, I always enjoy a challenge," he told WSOP.com. "So, playing with tough competition does make it a lot funner for me. It motivates me to really play my best.”
With all this hardware at the table, Sandberg managed to hold his own, going into Day 3 with the fifth biggest stack of seven.
Day 3 Action
On the final day, Vinny Chu and Travis Stevenson were the first out of the action on Day 3. Pearson followed in fifth, earning $28,921.
Murray and Turner took fourth and third respectively, leaving Sandberg heads up against James Czarnecki.
Czarnecki had a good start in the heads up phase of the tounrey. Although the players began with roughly even stacks, Czarnecki quickly pulled ahead.
However, Sandberg was able to turn things around when his three-bet bluff with Qx6xwas called preflop.
“I thought he looked weak when he raised — a completely bad read," he explained after the hand.
However, it was a perfectly timed mistake since the flop came out queen high and he picked up a six on the turn. After check-raising all in and getting a call, Sandberg's two-pair took it down and suddenly he was out in the lead.
After that, it was just a matter of mopping up the last of Czarnecki's chips. Czarnecki ended up taking home $87,977 for second place, while Sandberg pocketed $133,841 and the ring for first place.
