Who went on the best run this weekend? The winner had to be milkshakeman, who placed in the top five both Saturday and Sunday in the PartyPoker $200 events, winning more than $42k between the two. He had to outlast a particularly tough field on Sunday, with a final table that included ranked player sirio11, who always seems to be making it through these big fields.

A couple other well known big winners this weekend were G6Dragonand DblGutshot, who placed 2nd and 3rd respectively in the $350k Guaranteed event on PokerStars. This is the second time in the last few months that DblGutShot has placed in the top 3 in this tournament, which is extremely impressive, considering the size of the field. G6Dragon was also no stranger to the final table of this event.

On UltimateBet, nopoolsnarrowly missed winning the big Sunday tourney, coming in second and winning more than $23k. PocketFives.com blogger Denny Lemieux came in 6th in this event, winning nearly $4k. Both nopoolsand Denny Lemieuxhave made this final table multiple times in the past, and for each, this tournament was just another addition to an already impressive UltimateBet resume.
