A gem in the online casino world, UB’s Online Poker Championship Series (UBOC), which boasts a guarantee of over $5 Million in pot winnings and competition prizes, continued last Sunday, January 23rd. The main event on the cards was the UBOC6 Event #16 $750,000 GTD High Roller NLH Deep Stack. After the late-registration closed 120 minutes into the tournament, 387 online poker players were up for putting a large amount of their own money on the line, and their poker finesse to the test for a chance at winning some of the $774,000 prize pool.

After 12 hours of gruelling no-limit play, the UBOC Event was won by Canadian Matt Jarvis (who also goes by his online casino name JARFISH). When the action had made its way down to the four remaining players at the final table, a deal was requested. It was agreed that all four players would consent to deal out the remaining $437,016 prize money based on their current chip counts. The $15,000 winners side pot would carry on being played for. Thanks to a very lucky final two pair, Jarvis was able to lay claim to the prize money, the prestigious UBOC winner’s watch and another title to add to his growing collection. Canadian online poker certainly has a star in the JARFISH.
