Several other quality MILLIONS Online<\/strong> events took place while the Main Event<\/strong><\/a> was busy whittling down its field. Two High Rollers and a Super High Roller were the highlights, and two of those tournaments crowned their champions with Ali Imsirovic<\/strong> and Niklas Astedt<\/strong> getting their hands on titles.<\/p>\n

Ali Imsirovic Shines in the $5,200 High Roller Turbo<\/h2>\n

Sixty-five players bought into the MILLIONS Online #21 High Roller Turbo<\/strong> for $5,200 and created a $325,000 prize pool. The top 11 finishers won a slice of this ample pie, a min-cash weighing in at just over $11,000.<\/p>\n

The in-form David Coleman<\/strong> was the first player to see a return on his investment. Coleman busted in 11th place for $11,016 after Pascal Lefrancois<\/strong> burst the money bubble.<\/p>\n

Brazilian superstar Yuri Martins<\/strong> was the next star out of the door before Christopher Brewer<\/strong> fell in eighth and set the final table.<\/p>\n

Ivan Zufic<\/strong> and Christoph Vogelsang<\/strong> were the first pair of stellar names to crash out of the final table. The high stakes gurus walked away with $14,073 and $16,823 respectively.<\/p>\n

The final table waters became slightly less shark-infested when Italy\u2019s Dario Sammartino<\/strong> fell by the wayside. Sammartino\u2019s sixth-place finish weighed in at $21,327. Andras Nemeth<\/strong><\/a> and Daniel Dvoress<\/strong>, the latter reaching the MILLIONS Online Main Event in second-place, were the next casualties.<\/p>\n

Dvoress\u2019 exit left Wiktor Malinowski<\/strong> heads-up against Imsirovic. Malinowksi may be a heads-up specialist but he could not get the job done this time around and had to settle for the $60,815 runner-up prize. His demise left Imsirovic as the last player standing and Imsirovic banked the $97,516 top prize.<\/p>\n

Niklas Astedt Bags PLO Knockout Title<\/h2>\n

Niklas Astedt<\/strong><\/a> is one of the best online poker tournament players of all-time, but most know the Swede for his No-Limit Hold\u2019em<\/strong> prowess. Astedt showed what a class act he is by swapping two hole cards for four in the MILLIONS Online #19 Omaha Knockout<\/strong> and bulldozing his way to victory.<\/p>\n

Eighty-nine players bought in for $2,100 which meant $178,000 was about to be won. Half went into the main prize pool where the top 14 finishers bagged a slice, with the remaining 50% going on each player\u2019s head.<\/p>\n

Those bounties grew so large that Astedt\u2019s bounty payment was larger than his first-place prize. Victory saw Astedt bank $23,442 from the main prize pool plus an additional $31,375 from the bounty prize pool. A significant chunk of that bounty sum stemmed from eliminating Ami Barer<\/strong> in second place; Barer netted $13,000 worth of scalps on his way to his second-place finish.<\/p>\n
