Two good friends had to do battle in the $200 rebuy on PokerStars this past Sunday.  Scarface_79 (left) and mattg1983 (right) were both alive with 3 remaining in the event, and they ended up taking 2nd and 3rd respectively, each taking home a nice chunk of change.  Other P5ers at that final table included thechemist83 (4th), TheBeat (7th), and LUHMAN (8th).

Several P5ers were at the final table of the big Sunday Million there as well.  Denty was the highest finisher this week, taking second, and not far behind were Gianpaolo and Mr_BigCheese, who finished 3rd and 4th.  Phwap took 8th in the event.

UGOTPZD had another impressive PokerStars showing, taking 3rd in the Second Chance $200, and P5er meeks16 was also at that final table, taking 9th.

A new tournament in the Sunday Tournament Review this week is the PokerStars Sunday Warm Up, which attracted a prize pool of nearly $200k this week, and impressively, a P5er took the whole thing down.  Congrats to princetendee on taking home over $41k for the win.  P5er kalleland finished 5th as well.

And finally, the last Stars tournament we have to talk about is the big Sunday $100 rebuy.  Tigor took it down, playing as 2POKER2, and Assassin8tor finished 2nd.  JohnnyGstaks, JohnnyBax, and Wachovia took 4th, 5th, and 6th respectively, and sappy123 made it to the final table as well.

Bodog continues to have an overlay every week in their $100k Guaranteed, and P5er A__theKevlar__2 took 4th in it for $6,500.  A name we all know took 9th in this one, and that was Rizen.

90C108F3-0358-4886-B87E-B5AEB50D577B UltimateBet now has their UBOC (Ultimate Bet Online Championships) running, and this Sunday's event had a $250k Guarantee.  Not only that, P5ers were informed that any P5er who won one of these events would receive an extra $2,500 on top of their prize!  When 8 of the 10 who made the Sunday final table were P5s members, it looked like a sure thing, and as it turned out, all of the top 5 ended up being members of this site!  A genuine congrats goes out to blur5f6, who took home the first prize of over $56k in this event (as well as the extra $2,500).  The other P5ers to get there were adanthar, makisupa, rdcrsn, BeL0WaB0Ve, cdbr3799, gbmantis, and isuck123.

90C108F3-0358-4886-B87E-B5AEB50D577B UltimateBet has also raised their Sunday $500's guarantee to $50k now, which is promising for the high buy in players in this community.  Asiandude7 took down the tournament for over $14k, and isuck123 continued his solid run on UB, taking 3rd.  Recent Triple Crown winner Chucksty was also at the final table, finishing 9th.
