Let’s take a look at the biggest low, medium and high buy-in events, the full Monster Series Day 5 results and check out the huge events you can get stuck into today.

Monster #33-Low: $5K Gtd Slow 8-Max

  • Buy-in: $2.20

Poland’s “Solid_gierka” triumphed over 1,824-opponents in the Monster #33-Low: $5K Gtd Slow 8-Max on Monster Series Day 5 to bank $840, an impressive sum from a tournament that only cost $2.20 to enter.

Six of the eight finalists walked away with a three-figure score. “PapaTitan” of Russia secured a $127 prize, “gutsh0t” won $182 with “stepruslan44” also of Russia netting $258 after busting in fourth-place.

Third-place and $387 went to “MrManchester” of the United Kingdom, which set up a heads-up battle between Solid_gierka and Russia’s “Joker01996”. The latter fell in second-place for $596 leaving Solid_gierka to bank $840 and the title of Monster Series champion.

Monster #35-High: $50K Gtd PKO 8-Max

  • Buy-in: $22
  • Entrants: 2,112
  • Prize pool: $50,000

The Monster #35-High: $50K Gtd PKO 8-Max event saw 2,112-player exchange $22 for the chance to become a Monster Series champion. This PKO event saw some substantial bounty payments made thanks to partypoker not charging rake on the bounty element of the buy-in.

It goes without saying that the tournament’s winner won the most from the bounty prize pool. “Cruiselini” added $2,778 worth of bounties to their $3,500 first-place prize, a big bounty as it also contained the scalp of runner-up “pfcmakara” of Serbia who won $3,493 for their second-place finish and $315 from the bounty prize pool.

“FoldToAnyBet” of Germany finished in third-place and obviously didn’t fold to any bet because their $2,257 main prize pool haul was boosted by $627 worth of bounties.

Monster #36-Mid: $10K Gtd Deep Turbo 8-Max

  • Buy-in: $11
  • Entrants: 978
  • Prize pool: $10,00

Slovenia’s “tonizajla” is now $1,766 richer after winning the $11 buy-in Monster #36-Mid: $10K Gtd Deep Turbo 8-Max event on Monster Series Day 5.

A field of 978-players descended on the partypoker tables but it was the Slovenian who outshone them all. The runner-up hailed from Russia and banked $1,265, meaning “hankzetter” of Russia was the only other player, aside from the champion, to net a four-figure score.

Each of the other six finalist won at least $133 for their effort, with third-place finisher “serbie” of Canada scoring $836 from this $11 buy-in event, showing you don’t need to spend a lot to win big at partypoker.

No Rake on the Bounty Element of PKO Events

Our PKO tournaments have been extremely popular since their launch thanks in part to the bounties being bigger due to partypoker not charging rake on the bounty element of the buy-in.

For example, in the Monster #59-High: $200K Gtd Championship Event PKO on Sunday 17th March, the total buy-in is $55. Of this sum, $27.50 goes into the bounty prize pool, $25 goes into the regular prize pool and only the rake is only $2.50 in total. The rake in this particular tournament is only 4.55 percent.
