The top 2 in the PokerStars Second Chance $200 this week were both P5ers.  Apathy123 and THE__D__RY finished 1st and 2nd, both receiving hefty sums of cash.  gbmantis was also at the final table, finishing 6th for $9k, and Bustarimes took 9th place.  By the way, this event had a prizepool of $225k, making it one of the largest Sunday tournaments, despite it not being the largest on its own site!

Wachovia (pictured) continued his excellent run this weekend, finishing 9th in the big one on PartyPoker, the $1M Guaranteed.

RuSsBuSteR on Bodog won the $100k guaranteed there, taking $25k for first prize.  His P5s name is Rcrane082985.

Five P5ers cashed out at the final table of the $200k on UltimateBet.  In order, beatiful man, drossyxyu, Ditka89, CP_Magician, and #1PEN finished 3rd, 4th, 6th, 7th, and 8th.

Another P5er to make a major final table was ActionJeff, who finished 8th in the $200k on Full Tilt.  Also, on PokerRoom, Wake all in took 3rd in the Weekly Big Deal, which was worth just under $11k.  This is a tournament that has grown significantly in recent weeks, and this week it had a prize pool of nearly $110k!

Congrats to everyone who cashed.  Here are the results:
