Greg "DuckU" Hobson (pictured) has been on a tear on UltimateBet. Several months after he became well-known for back-to-back wins in Full Tilt Sunday majors, Hobson is still quietly picking up some huge tournament scores in between sessions at the high stakes cash tables on Bodog. This week, he won the UBOC Event #4 for $55k and also took 5th in Event #5 for over $13k.
Also at the Event #4 final table with DuckU were dabadestchic and potroast, who finished 2nd and 3rd respectively, as well as 6th place finisher CapnJackpot. All of those being accomplished players, it was not an easy final table for the eventual champion.
In Event #5, the winner was online poker veteran, proud father, and PokerXFactor.com instructor Eric "Rizen" Lynch (left), who received nearly $58k for his win. His heads up opponent was Nutstr84444, and others at the final table included pokerpixie, the aforementioned DuckU, and majdasad.
P5er DoubleS00ted had his second big win in about a month, taking down the Full Tilt $750k Guaranteed for $132k. In early November, he took down the Sunday Million on Stars, and these two wins have combined for over $300k. Others at the final table of the $750k included bfineman (4th), mc_palermo (5th), and rkruok (9th).
The other big Sunday tournament on Full Tilt was also won by a P5er. Popular OT poster MrTimCaum (right) "shipped" the Mulligan for over $37k, defeating fellow P5er dapalma150 heads up. Cdbr3799 finished 4th in this one, while Dyzalot, Rex55, and FatalError took 6th, 8th, and 9th places respectively.
The Sunday Warm Up on PokerStars just upped its guarantee to $500k and actually had a small overlay this week. It was taken down for nearly $100k by ryanmack91. One of his opponents at the final table was P5er Shaihulud. The Sunday Million also had some members of this site in the final group. Gbmantis took 3rd place, Denmark's top online player Klausen took 5th, and Jeffb48 was the 9th place finisher.
TheFitGuy won the always difficult $200 rebuy on Stars, defeating rdcrsn heads up. TheWacoKidd (left), All In At 420, ShannonShorr, mr. menlo, and rkruok took 4th-8th places in that order. For rkruok, it was his second major final table of the day, having also taken 9th in the Full Tilt $750k.
Given that all three founders of PocketFives.com are Vanderbilt graduates, we have to send a special congrats to Scott "dorinvandy" Dorin, a VU student who plays poker on the side and this week won the Sunday Second Chance for over $51k. Scott beat one of the most popular P5ers heads up, Mr_BigQueso. Justpartime6 and player222 were also present at the final table, finishing 6th and 7th.
Finally on PartyPoker in the $300k Guaranteed, Toronto resident Michael "Bertrand13" Bertrand finishied 3rd for $21k. The next two finishers below him were also P5ers. Mongy and fhaugen took 4th and 5th in the event.
