The High version of the Main Event is now in the books and Felipe "lipe piv" Boianovsky took down the top prize for more than $1 million. He made it through 587 entries to take down the biggest share of the $5.87 million prize pool.
He had to battle through a grueling heads-up battle against Laszlo "omaha4rollz" Bujtas, and both players had the lead at various points through the heads-up phase. Neither player was shy about getting chips into the pot either for value or on audacious bluffs.
Boianovsky took his final big lead after hero-calling a pair of queens on an ace-high straighty-flushy board. Bujtas couldn't recover from that and the game was done shortly after.

The four-day Main Event High kicked off on Sunday, May 28 with 515 entries by the time the day finished. Entries were still open until the start of Day 2, and in the end, there were 587 total entries in the game for a prize pool of $5,870,000.
235 players returned on Day 2 and they made the 71 money spots before they bagged up for the night with 40 left. There was good representation from PokerStars Team Pro in Day 2, but none of them managed to make the money. Rafael "GM_VALTER" Moraes had the best result, but he fell about 15 shy of the money spots.
Among the players with big dreams on Day 3 was Mike "SirWatts" Watson who started May with his second EPT title in Monte Carlo. He brought the second-biggest stack to Day 3 of the Main as well as the biggest stack to the final table of the Super High Roller. He ended up third in that SHR while coming 16th in the Main.
When the dust settled on Day 3 with nine players remaining, "Deiv4za" had the big stack of more than 28 million, and led three players with more than 20m. Action started quickly with two eliminations in the first full level of play. They got down to seven left before the end of the next level with runner-up Bujtas building the biggest stack.
They were six-handed for almost an hour before defending champion "WelcomelNnferNO" got it in preflop with ace-three suited only to run into kings for 3rd place finisher Paulo "paulinhoo00" Brombin. Start of day chip leader "Deiv4za" followed shortly after and then they played four-ways for almost two levels.
Again, two quick eliminations got the game to heads up where things slowed down once again. The lead went back and forth with both players making excellent calls, audacious bluffs, and thin value bets throughout.
The big turnaround for Boianovsky came when he turned the nut straight against an overpair for a huge double to more than 100m. Bujtas managed to claw some back with a double, but couldn't manage to spin it back to the lead, ending his run on a bit of a heads-up cooler with king-nine suited into the ace-ten for Boianovsky.
The Mina Event High is now over after Laszlo "omaha4rollz" Bujtas ended his run in second place. Felipe "lipe piv" Boianovsky had a huge lead, and they limp-shoved over a raise to 3.2m from Bujtas.
Laszlo "omaha4rollz" Bujtas: K?9?
Felipe "lipe piv" Boianovsky: A?10?
It was a bit of a heads-up cooler but Boianovsky flopped an ace and turned a ten for the win. Bujtas was looking for his fifth SCOOP title, but he'll have to settle for four.
Stay tuned for a full recap of the Main Event High shortly.
