Monday's PokerStars $100 rebuy tournament saw seven P5s members at its final table this week. Bryan Bry23 Barrile, who recently had a 2nd place finish in the Quarter Million for $42k, took down this event Monday for just over $21,000. David Davidp18 Peters of Toledo, OH began his impressive week by finishing runner-up to Barrile for $15,205.
