Tournament Review for 3-9-2008

By P5s Staff

The second Sunday of March brought out the best in PocketFives.com members, as the final table of the inaugural Bodog Poker Open Main Event featured a total of seven P5'ers.  Shawn "phatcat" Luman (right) took down the Main Event for $76,000 and an Omega Speedmaster Watch.  Shawn outlasted "_johnnydrama_," who took 2nd for $45,800.  Jared "TheWacoKidd" Hamby ended up in 3rd for nearly $30k, and Stuart "Zpaceman" Taylor finished in 4th for over $21k.

Also making the BPO Main Event final table was PocketFives.com Moderator "Anbessa," who finished in 7th Place for $10,700.  "PSP_addict" wound up in 8th Place for nearly $8,000 and "Eeman2004" rounded out the final table and cashed for over $5k.

The PartyPoker $300k Guaranteed tournament saw Sweden's "RIPCURL" at the final table.  With his 7th Place finish, "RIPCURL" moves into the Top 10 in the PocketFives.com Sortable Rankings for the country of Sweden. 

The PokerStars Sunday Warm-Up was won by P5'er "IWEARGOGGLES" (left), who earned $108,500 for the victory.  He beat "cdbr3799" heads-up, who collected $55k for 2nd, as "Zpaceman" earned nearly $40k for 3rd Place.  "Zpaceman" is a Contributing Writer for PocketFives.com, and has had quite a bit of success at online tournament play in the past year.  PocketFiver "tsarrast" made the final table of the PokerStars Sunday Million, earning $73,500 for his 3rd Place finish.  "Psyduck" was also at that final table, and earned over $32k for 7th.

The PokerStars $215 rebuy tournament featured six PocketFives.com members at the final table, led by "xxjondxx," who placed 2nd for $32k.  Finishing 3rd for $22k was "holdplz," as "Anbessa" earned nearly $13k for 5th.  Long-time member "jeffbeesdat" (right) finished the Sunday $215 rebuy in 6th Place for $10k.  Jim "Mr_BigQueso" Collopy placed 7th in that tournament for $7,700 and world-renowned bridge player Steve "thorladen" Weinstein took home $5,500 for 8th.  The Stars 2nd Chance tourney included P5'er "jmaca99," who received $7,800 for 7th Place.

Top 10 online tournament player Daniel "djk123" Kelly (left) had a big Sunday by finishing 3rd in the Full Tilt $750k Guaranteed tournament for $55,600.  Popular P5'er Jon "apestlyes" Van Fleet finished 5th in that same tournament for $33k, as "Mr_BigQueso" made $14,300 for 8th in his second major final table.  Germany's top-ranked online tournament player, "goodvibe," took 2nd in the Sunday Brawl for almost $40k, after outlasting "19FMzadester" and "gibler123," who finished 6th and 7th respectively for $12.5k and $8k.

The Full Tilt Sunday Mulligan was won by "FishOnTilt," who took home $46k for 1st Place.  Josh "pbdrunks" Van Duyn (right) capped off an incredible week of poker by finishing 2nd for almost $30k.  Josh chopped the $1k live tournament at the Wynn Poker Room in Las Vegas earlier in the week.  P5'er "ilushan" took 5th Place for $13k, as "darrenelias" finished 6th for $9,200.  Brock "t soprano" Parker cashed for $6k after finishing 7th, and "Beaver Fever" earned $4,500 for 8th.

The Ultimate Bet $200k Guaranteed had a nice overlay this week, as seven P5'ers made the final table.  "Amak316" (left) placed 2nd for $27k after winning a $100 rebuy tournament earlier in the day.  PocketFiver "Wein" continued his impressive online tournament run, earning $18,500 for 3rd Place.  Cashing in for $13k for 4th Place was "jlewis10748," as "jak" earned $11k for 5th.  Professional poker player "ShannonShorr" won $9k for 6th Place in the UB $200k Guaranteed, while "CrazyMarco" and "JohnnyGStaks" placed 8th and 9th respectively, for cashes of $5k and $3,500.
