The weekend started off in promising fashion for P5ers and ranked players, as Wachovia and Brett Ho took 5th and 8th respectively in the PartyPoker Friday Special.  The next night, on the same site, doomed22222 had a huge win, taking first prize in the $200k guaranteed.

Sunday proved to be no disappointment either, and as usual, P5ers turned out in hoards for the big Sunday tournaments.  5 different major tournaments were won by PocketFives.com registered users this weekend, including the afore mentioned $200k.

Polofitted007 won $25k for first place in the $100k on Bodog, joining the list of P5ers that have cashed big in this event.  Later in the afternoon, colson10 took home the first prize of more than $30k in the $100k guaranteed on Paradise, and at the same time, ProjectSix was in the process of winning the $35k guaranteed on Full Tilt.  To cap off the night, one o clock won the UltimateBet $125k guaranteed. 

On PokerStars, no P5ers made the final table of the $500k this week, but dontfearme won the big Sunday $100 rebuy, taking more than $22k for first.  Gigabet finished 3rd in this tournament, and JohnnyBax just missed the final table, coming in 10th.

A couple other P5ers and noteables to make final tables this weekend were KRISTEN (6th in the UltimateBet $125k guaranteed), spencerman, and 55lucky55 (3rd and 8th respectively in the $100k guaranteed on Paradise).
