Freestyle rapper Alejandro Lococo made all the noise in the Triton Million, winning the $12,070,000 first prize as a VIP and besting not only his pro partner Joao Vieira but the rest of the world's best players at WSOP Paradise. He won his first WSOP bracelet and a Triton trophy, and talked to PokerOrg's Matt Hansen straight after.
But there was another big headline that didn't get written. Triton OG Sosia Jiang looked odds-on to record the biggest single cash by a woman. She needed to finish 7th to better Annette Obrestad's 2007 WSOPE Main Event win that netted her $2,013,733.

and made the call to eliminate Jiang. She took home $1,605,000.Ā

Two bracelets were slated to be handed out on Monday night, but the PLO Super High Roller has gone into extra time. An all-star cast saw Ike Haxton, Patrik Antonius, Jason Koon and Jared Bleznick got close, but now it's between Ben Tollerene, who will return with the lead (30,000,000), and Lautaro Guerra (23,000,000). They'll come back at 2pm today to play for the gold.Ā

Meanwhile, Chance Kornuth decided to toss a hand grenade into the middle of his competitors in the coaching world. He claims that other elite coaching schools are holding back winning secrets, while he and Alex Foxen are giving all their secrets away (but not for free) at Chip Leader Coaching.
