Prize pool: $150,000
Places paid: 20

RentCollection’s first victory came in the $1,050 POWERFEST #09-HR: $150K Gtd PKO that saw 137 players compete for a slice of $150,000. The top 20 places were paid and each of the eight players who reached the final table guaranteed themselves at least $2,526 plus how every many scalps they claimed along the way.

“Afroluxbon” busted in eighth-place and won $2,526 plus $3,315 and they were joined on the sidelines by “GaloDeCalca” and “imakeusweat”, the latter securing a combined prize worth $6,990.

Fifth-place went to one of our own. Patrick “Patrick_Leonard” Leonard won $9,440 when bounties were taken into consideration.

“CalmDownMan”, who won the opening POWERFEST X event on Day 1, finished in fourth-place for $8,979 with “kapros21” being the penultimate casualty, their third-place exit adding $15,859 to their partypoker account.

RentCollection went toe-to-toe with “Van_Vian_Van” who had won $55,125 on Day 1 with a fourth-place finish in the $500,000 Gtd Super High Roller. Van_Vian_Van couldn’t quite get the job done and had to make do with a $19,690 prize, leaving RentCollection to collect a combined prize worth $31,731.

POWERFEST #09-M: $75K Gtd PKO

Entries: 1,697
Buy-in: $55
Prize pool: $89,092
Places paid: 216

A huge field of 1,697 entires competed in the POWERFEST #09-M: $75K Gtd PKO and ensured the $75,000 guarantee was blown out of the water. $89,092 was up for grabd and it was RentCollection who got their hands on the lion’s share of the prize pool.

After winning the $1,050 buy-in edition of this event, RentCollection went on to waltz away with their second title of the evening. First-place in this $55 buy-in event was worth $5,622 with the champion also securing $3,931 from the bounty prize pool.

The champion defeated “Snusklubba” heads-up for their second victory of the day, resigning the runner-up to a $5,613 consolation prize that was padded with $1,900 worth of bounties; only RentCollection collected more scalps.

Earlier at the final table, “Sandor Clegane” crashed out in eighth-place ($1,133), “elmal” busted in seventh-place ($1,219) and sixth-place went to “Sega Mega drive” ($1,511).

“Stylegames66” ($2,448) and “ShiraFTW” ($3,782) followed them to the sidelines, because the elimination of “Cactussen” in third-place ($4,309) sent the tournament into the heads-up stage and we know how that panned out.

POWERFEST #11-HR: $30K Gtd PLO 6-Max Fast PKO

Entries: 62
Buy-in: $530
Prize pool: $31,775
Places paid: 9

One of our Brazilian members of Team partypoker, Renato “renato_nomura” Nomura, came agonisingly close to banking a POWERFEST title of the series, falling at the final hurdle in the $530 buy-in POWERFEST #11-HR: $30K Gtd PLO 6-Max Fast PKO.

Nomura reached the final table of the POWERFEST #03-SHR: $500K Gtd on Day 1 for $25,200 and added another $6,789 by finishing second in this Pot-Limit Omaha event.

It was “PottiPete95” who sent Nomura to the rail, locking up the $4,036 top prize as a result. The winner also scooped $4,216 from the bounty prize pool, which included their own bounty, for an impressive return on their investment.

Everyone else won more than $1,500 for reaching the six-handed final table. Shout-outs to “BRAER_71RUS” ($1,594), “KanielOutis” ($2,018), “Sweeet Jooonny” ($3,074) and “layla” ($2,857) who were the other four finalists.
