Tournament Review for 12-30-2005 through 1-1-2006[ return to main articles page ]

By: P5s Staff
Published on Jan 2nd, 2006
The first Sunday of 2006 has come and gone, and one of the big winners of the day was a familiar face. JOEYTHEB took 6th place in the PokerStars $500k guaranteed, winning more than $26k. It was the 2nd time in 2 months that he has final tabled their Sunday tourney.

CardiffGiant (GambleAB) won the $100k guaranteed on Bodog, which drew a fairly large crowd of 825 players and still managed to have a $17.5k overlay in the prizepool. DippyDough took down $6,500 for 4th place in the same event.

A couple noteables made nice scores on PartyPoker this weekend. yahtzee0 (iMsoLucky0) took 5th in the Friday Special, which was worth 11.4k. ComeOnPhish was the 4th place finisher in the $200k guaranteed, which netted him $12k. On Sunday, YelloSub86 finished 4th for more than $35k in the $500k guaranteed.

On Paradise, Tipsy Joker finished 5th in the $150k guaranteed. This was the first weekend with the new guarantee, which was set at $100k throughout the year 2005. ShuMony2Nite took 9th in this tournament as well.

MrTimCaum took 7th in the Full Tilt $60k guaranteed, which was worth about $25k. yankee47 (B_O_K_E) finished 9th overall in the Weekly Big Deal on PokerRoom, which barely missed its $80k guarantee.

We hope the new year is a good one for all P5ers, and we wish everyone the best of luck in the coming year. Here are the final table results:
