'iRunStims' took home the biggest payout on Day 5 of partypoker's POWERFEST.

It was another action-packed day on the virtual felts as Day 5 of partypoker’s POWERFEST continued to deliver massive prize pools and big-time paydays.

The largest payout of the day was handed out to ‘iRunStims’ who took down Event #43-SHR ($5,200 NLHE 8-Max). ‘iRunStims’ navigated the 101-entry field to capture the $123,725 first-place prize and the Super High Roller title. Settling for second place was ‘aaabbb’ who also walked away with a nice payday of $88,375. The longwinded screen name ‘kgroqigmqtbmqom’ just missed out on a POWERFEST title for the second day in a row, grabbing the bronze and $63,125.

‘jerbi9999’ won the heads-up battle against ‘MrDatt’ in Event #40-HR ($530 NLHE 8-Max, Grind) to walk away with $28,258 for first. ‘MrDatt’ also earned a five-figure payday, taking home $20,448 as the runner-up. ‘MeisterYoda’ claimed third place for $14,342.

GPI Female Player of the Year Kristen ‘Krissyb24’ Bicknell also made the final table in this one, bowing out in eighth place and adding $5,152 to her over $3.5 million in career online earnings.

One of the themes of Thursday was Team partypoker players making deep runs. This was highlighted by the victory of partypoker ambassador Joni ‘JJouhki’ Jouhkimainen in Event #42-SHR ($5,200 Pot Limit Omaha, 6-Max). It was a small field of 46 entries but in the end, Jouhkimainen, a PLO specialist, took home the $92,000 first-place prize. He defeated ‘Robbery9999’ heads-up, who also finished the day with a nice score of $58,867.35.

Speaking of nice scores, ‘Stolewon’ avoided the knock-out in Event #44-HR ($2,100 NLHE, 6-Max, PKO) to pick up the $29,146.22 payout for first. They added another $51,171.13 in bounties for a grand total haul of just over $80,000. ‘Executioner_’ fell in second place, earning $29,114.39 plus another $8,137.49 in bounties. ‘kgroqigmqtbmqom’ finished in third place in a High Roller for the second time on Thursday, adding $20,484.23 plus $3,445.31 in bounties to their earnings on the day.

It was nearly a pair of victories for Team partypoker. After a nearly nine-hour grind in Event #44-H ($320 NLHE, 6-Max, PKO), Team Online pro Matthew Staples was rivered by an ‘ace from space’ in what was the final hand of the tournament to come up one spot short. By the time Staples got to heads-up play against the hyper-aggressive ‘Coup_de_grace’, he had over 3,500 people watching him live on Twitch. He battled back from a 4:1 chip deficit when after flopping two pair ‘Coup_de_grace’ spiked an ace on the river giving them a higher two pair as the chips went in the middle. Staples added $18,339.34 plus an additional $5,68647 to his bankroll as the runner up. ‘Coup_de_grace’ logged off after collecting $18,366.47 and an additional $18,822,77 for first, a total of over $37,000.
