A week ago, Faraz The-ToiletJaka (pictured), a longtime member of the PocketFives community, won the PokerStars Super Tuesday and bagged $101,000. He is up to $3.7 million in online tournaments PocketFives tracks and has been part of our site since 2006. It was the American’s third largest online poker score to date and his largest since a SCOOP $2,100 No Limit Hold’em Cubed jersey run for $173,000 three years ago.

He told the PokerStars Blog that his grinding station was seemingly less than ideal, as that night, Jaka was “grinding on the kitchen table of the Shared Airbnb unit I was in. My roommates asked me how I was doing at around midnight when the tournament was just a couple hours in. I told them it was too early to tell and that if I’m awake when they woke up to go to work/sightseeing, then I was doing good.”

He continued with the post-sunrise portion of the story: “At about 8:00am, one of them popped out and I was heads-up playing for $101k. One of my random roommates who’s a software developer for Amazon stood behind me brushing his teeth getting ready to go to work. He was amazed trying to catch as much of the action as he could.”

Jaka held the chip lead when the nine-handed Super Tuesday final table began and was a slight favorite entering heads-up play against Granter7777. Thirty-seventh ranked Nick fu_15Maimone (pictured) and 1,264th ranked jace968also made the final table, while longtime PocketFiver Johan busto_soon Van Til was the final table bubble boy.

On the final hand, Granter7777 was all-in with aces on a board of 9-K-8-7 and behind Jaka’s 8-7. The river was a red ten and Jaka won the Super Tuesday for $101,000.

He Tweeted shortly thereafter, “Case closed, suitcase filled w/ clothes #NoChop #FinishedHim. Now 2 figure out how to shut off n sleep. 8am in Berlin.”
