Which is more impressive: P5s members finishing in the top three spots of the Paradise $150k or P5ers occupying four spots at the final table of the PokerStars Sunday Million?

In order, the top three on Paradise were mig.com, gobboboy, and mattg1983 (pictured).  At the same time on PokerStars, STNCOLDKILLR (2nd), Yankees31 (4th), arzCARDZfan (5th), and sideshowgil (7th) won amounts ranging from $20k to $90k.

Another P5er did well in a big Sunday tourney on PokerStars, the 2nd chance $200, which yet again had a prizepool over $200k.  XTraCey finished third in this one, cashing for just over $16k.

There were two other final tables that were packed with P5ers on Sunday.  In the Full Tilt $200k guaranteed, #1PEN (3rd), G6Dragon (4th), GB2005 (5th), colson10 (7th), and MrTimCaum (8th) were all in the last stretch.  In UltimateBet's $200k, which had a healthy overlay of more than $21k this week, BKiCe finished second, and ArmyDrill (6th), iMsoLucky0 (8th), and WiscoMurray (9th) were not far behind.

Titan Poker had their $250k guaranteed tournament to kick off the NFL season, and while several P5ers went deep, only a couple made the final table.  Raptor517 was the best of the group, finishing third for $20k, and Ari ended up finishing 7th for $7,500.  Another Bodog regular, squintngo, took 9th in the Bodog $100k guaranteed.

As is often the case, a couple P5ers had nice cashes on PartyPoker.  The__D__RY was the runner up in the Friday Special, which netted him about $23k, and Rollinx420 was able to chop the Saturday $200k guaranteed.

The Weekly Big Deal on PokerRoom had a prizepool right around $100k this week, and two P5ers made the final table.  We're sure they'd have liked to have finished a little higher, but Wake All In and MarvinGarden took 9th and 10th place respectively.


Lots of P5ers at the final tables this weekend!  Congrats to everyone who cashed.  Here are the weekend results:
