Statistical Notes Following MPT 2014 Event #1

Observations following the first event of the 2014 season, held at Golden Nugget Atlantic City on May 3, 2014.

  • This was the first MPT event played without Bigfus, ending a streak of 42 consecutive tournaments
  • With only five players, this event equaled the smallest field in MPT history, last set in April, 2008 (RowanB also won that event)
  • The Golden Nugget Atlantic City was the sixteenth different venue to host a MPT event
  • TSS777 busted on the bubble for the second time in his 29 MPT appearances
  • RowanB leaped past Harv29 into third place on the all-time money list
  • By eliminating Harv29 in this event, TSS777 took the all-time lead in career "kills"
  • This was the first time since July 2009 that TSS777 recorded a single "kill" in an event, the only other time in his MPT career when he recorded a single elimination (in the meantime, he recorded multiple "kills" in eight other tournaments)
