Tournament Review for 2-3-2008

By P5s Staff | Published Feb 04 2008, 03:06 PM

Super Bowl Sunday saw prize pools shrink a bit in the online majors, but there was still plenty of money to be won, and P5s Contributing Writer Alex "AJKHoosier" Kamberis (left) made a big score in one of the bigger Sunday events.  Kamberis was the runner up in the PokerStars $200 Rebuy, which was worth more than $30k.

Also making a final table in that same tournament were PocketFivers "Potroast" (above), whose 3rd Place finish earned him $20,700, along with ChipSteela and Ruprikkt.

Well-known P5's member Jason "Mkind16" (left) Laso continued his hot tournament streak, placing 3rd in the UltimateBet $200k Guaranteed for $18,500.  The UB $200k showcased three other PocketFives.com members at the final table -- Priit, who made $28,000 for his 2nd Place finish, along with SassyTexan and AawwNutz, who finished 8th and 9th respectively.


P5'er "CobaltBlue" captured a victory in the Bodog $100k Guaranteed that netted him a $25,000 paycheck.  "People_Mover" and "bearbeer" were also at the $100k Guar. final table.  "TjeckRacer" and "bastet" represented the site well in the PartyPoker $300k Guaranteed tournament by placing 4th and 9th respectively.     

Full Tilt showcased a $500k Guaranteed tournament this past Sunday, and PocketFiver "joeramos333" won $14k for his 7th Place finish.  Big name P5'er Todd "NSXT2" Arnold made the $500k final table as well and received $8,170 for 9th Place.  For FullTitPoker's Sunday Mulligan tournament, Off Topic Forum poster "pokerjamers" won nearly $9k for his 5th Place showing, while "Arbianight" got 7th for $4,200 and "mindgamer" got 9th for $2,600.

The FullTiltPoker Sunday Brawl featured a total of five PocketFivers at the final table, with "gettin deep" headlining the action with a 2nd Place finish for $41,600.  Site member "hitthehole" finished in 4th for $24,500, with "GBecks," "JDsmith9," and "shini_333" rounding out the final table with 7th, 8th, and 9th Place finishes.

The action on PokerStars began before network pre-game coverage of Super Bowl XVII, and the Sunday Warmup featured PocketFiver "Superfluous Man" at the final table, whose 7th Place finish earned him almost $13k.

The PokerStars Sunday Million was hardly affected by the Super Bowl, as 6,266 players participated in their weekly flagship tournament.  PocketFiver "wildman75" came away with a $67,500 score for placing 3rd.  Fellow member "meltedtime," who goes by "jamb0ne" on Stars, won nearly $29k for 6th, while former PocketFives.com Podcast guest "stpauli111" made $12,500 for coming in 8th.  The Stars 2nd Chance final table saw "dankness3" finish 5th for $11k and "Quads420" finish 6th for $8,400.
