Weekday Tournament Review for July-31-2009

By wandigo | Published Jul 31 2009, 02:51 AM

PocketFives.com members won five major tournaments for the first part of this week, led by Ty dabears87 Reiman (pictured) of Champaign, Illinois, who outlasted 400 opponents to take down the Full Tilt Poker $1k Monday for $100,250. Reiman also has numerous wins in the $100 rebuy tournaments on Pokerstars as well as a 3rd place finish in last month's Super Tuesday for $32.5k. Finishing runner-up to Reiman was BillChapel of New Jersey who earned $62.1k, just a few months after his $53.3k score for taking down the Sunday Mulligan. PocketFives blogger Cre8ive placed third for $46.1k, followed by ASPoker8 in 5th for just over $27k. Christian charder Harder finished 7th for $13k, dsindy in 8th for $10k and 8BallDeluxe took home just over $8k for placing 9th.

The second largest tournament this week was the PokerStars Super Tuesday, which paid out $394,000 in prize money. This week, six PocketFives.com members reached the final table, led by Daniel Allanon Drescher of Germany, who finished runner-up for $57.1k. Drescher is no stranger to major final tables, already booking a win in this event in March for $71.7k as well as an outright win in the Sunday Million last year for $184,500. Ozenc of the Netherlands finished 3rd in this week's event for $43.3k, Todd tbt4653 Terry earned $22.4k for 5th, IrunDisBitch placed 6th for $22.4k, JasonGray took 7th for $13.3k and pokerjoe9 finished 9th for just under $7k.

Monday's $100 rebuy tournament on PokerStars saw four P5s members at its final table this week.  Thirty-ninth ranked player pokerjamers (left) outlasted the field of 275 other players to earn the $21.7k top prize. In early April, this player chopped the SCOOP-08-H event for $380,000. Blizair, who is currently ranked #70, finished 5th in this weeks $100 rebuy for $6.2k, followed by LUHMAN in 6th for $4.7k and JBT449 took 8th for $2.6k.

Five P5ers were seen deep in Monday's Nightly $100k Guaranteed tournament. JDSmith9 of North Carolina took runner-up in this tournament for just over $20k. Blair blur5f6 Hinkle, a World Series bracelet winner from 2008, placed 4th for $11.3k. 2BOO2BOO of San Jose finished 5th for $7.8k, followed by FLUSH634 in 6th for $6.3k and bgr9292 earned $3.2k for his 8th place finish.

Tuesday's PokerStars $100 rebuy tournament had 319 entrants this week. Six P5s members made the final table, led by Zackattak13 of New York City, who won this event for $26.6k, just a little over a month after his win in the $55 rebuy tournament for $30.6k. PeachyMer received $14.7k for her third place finish, followed by Triple Crown winner theczar19, who placed 4th for just over $11k. Believer82  finished in 5th for $7.6k, ronaldgrauer earned $4.5k for 7th and mcmatto placed 9th for $2.2k.

Just two P5ers were seen deep in Tuesday's Nightly $100k Guaranteed tournament. Matt swifterjet Swift, who finished 4th in the Sunday Million earlier this year for $75k, placed 4th in this event for $11.1k. Dansteele of New York was close behind Swift, taking 6th for $6,100.

The Quarter Million on PokerStars had 966 entrants this week and five P5s members reached the final table, led by 10th ranked player David Doc Sands Sands, who finished runner-up in this event for $37.6k which surely should hold his place in the top ten. Bhanks11 of Las Vegas took 4th this week for $21.1k, followed by playaa17, who earned his largest online score of $14.9k for taking 5th. Daniel djk123 Kelly placed 7th for $9.1k and kudos1017 took 9th for $3.7k.

Wednesday's $100 rebuy tournament on PokerStars paid $145,600 in prize money this week. This week's final table saw seven P5s members, led by Ravi govshark2 Raghavan (pictured), who won this event for $27.7k. Raghavan is also featured on the most recent Podcast discussing his WSOP final table appearance as well as his $1k Monday win from last week, which earned him $78.2k. Finishing runner-up to Ravi in the $100 rebuy was phatchoy888 of New Jersey, who earned $20.9k for 2nd. Eric SiVTEC placed 3rd for $15.6k, GhettoFabolous earned $11.9k for 4th, kvnok88 placed 7th for $4.9k and gboro780 and charder had 8th and 9th place finishes for $3.5k and $2.4k respectively.

The $100k Guaranteed on Full Tilt Poker had 431 entrants this week. This is a $100 rebuy 6-max tournament, usually attracting some of the top tournament professionals and known to be one of the toughest weekly tournaments. This week, just one P5er reached the final table. Mike tuna_fish_tank Stroh of Toronto took 6th in this tournament, taking home $6.4k for his efforts.

UltimateBet is the host for two large tournaments on Wednesday. The Sniper 80k Guarantee tournament had 496 entrants this week. Mark dipthrong Herm was the eventual winner, taking home $21.8k just one month after he also won the $530 $100k Guaranteed on the same site for $26.6k. Taking 5th this week was Nick OneTime_10 Frost, who earned $6.2k. Jeremy daisyxoxo Fitzpatrick of South Carolina took 6th for $4.2k, followed by _cwp394_ in 7th for $3.3k, B00mer888 in 8th for $2.4k and beland66 in 9th for $1.7k.

Five P5ers reached the final table of the $150k Guaranteed tournament, which is a $1,000+50 buy-in event. This week 183 players entered this tournament and Juan koolkeith13 Dixon was our top finisher, taking runner-up for $29.2k. Darryll DFish Fish placed 3rd for $21.5k, SPIN101 earned $10.9k for 6th, ryanbluf finished 8th for $6.4k and Alex AJKHoosier1 Kamberis took home $4.5k for placing 9th.
