Davidp18 (right) is one of the hottest names in online poker right now, having picked up recent big Sunday wins on PokerStars and UltimateBet.   This week, for the second time in recent months, he took down the Sunday Second Chance $200 on Stars, which was worth just over $48k, making him one of the biggest winners of the weekend in online poker.  Others at the final table included 3rd and 4th place finishers PearlJammer and dsindy. 

For the second week in a row, P5s members took down both the Sunday majors on UltimateBet.  Andy McLEOD won the $200k Guaranteed, beating fellow P5ers Jucifer (2nd), Tmay420 (5th), and ShuMonyTonite (7th) at the final table.

In the $500 buy in, MrSmokey1 (left) picked up the win this week, outlasting Deuce2High (3rd), Gotskillz? (4th), mindwise (5th), IcYRaVeNHawK (7th), and Roothlus (8th).

The big event on

Full Tilt was a $500 buy in this week, and a P5er took that one down as well for more than $117k!  That P5er was Like7; congrats on an enormous 6-figure win!  A_Junglen has been no stranger to major final tables, and he took 6th in this one.  PhantomRay finished 9th.

One other P5er to have a big Sunday win was JINXY_MONKEY, who actually had a standout weekend, pulling out 3 wins on Stars.  His Sunday win was in the big $100 rebuy, where first prize was $32k.  Confiteor finished 2nd in this one, adding to a nice streak of recent high finishes in Sunday tourneys on Stars.  Sheets (5th), Deuce2High (6th), thenut21poker (7th), and YourTimeIsUp (9th) were also present at the final table.

In the Bodog $100k Guaranteed, which once again had an overlay that represented more than 9% of the prizepool, three P5ers made it to the final table.  BodogMaven, openartery, and rusostreet finished 5th, 6th, and 7th respectively.

A few other P5ers had nice finishes on PokerStars.  In the $200 rebuy, P0KERPR033, BeL0WaB0Ve, PFabe, and mr. menlo took 3rd, 6th, 7th, and 9th place respectively.  Jimmie23 took 4th place in the Sunday Warm Up.
