Chris Oliver Wins Rotowire Online Champ. & $100,000

[Greg Ambrosius]

Chris Oliver of St. Louis, Missouri won the 2018 Rotowire Online Championship and the $100,000 grand prize as he topped a field of 1,764 teams for the title. Chris finished 66 points ahead of John Pausma for the top spot. Pausma, who won the Main Event title this year, missed the $75,000 cash bonus for winning both overall titles, but he did net $25,000 for finishing second. Rounding out the Top 5 were Bryan Vogel ($17,000), Tom O'Bryan ($12,000) and Steve Elbaum ($7,500). Chris had just one team in the Rotowire Online Championship this year and he drafted on the second last drafting day of the season, Tuesday, March 27th. Great job Chris.
