Those players walked away with prizes of $18,947 and $28,329 respectively.<\/p>\n<p>The penultimate exit was that of Slovenia&#8217;s Blaz Zerjav, his third-place finish awarding an impressive $41,741.

Nobody would have batted an eyelid had the heads-up duo struck a deal because there was a difference of more than $27,000 in the final payouts. However, the final two players concluded the Super 500 in the traditional manner, which meant Ivarsson collected $88,292 when he defeated Maekelberg heads-up, resigning the Belgian runner-up to a still impressive $61,071 consolation prize.<\/p>\n<h2>MILLIONS Online #03 Super 500 Final Table Results<\/h2>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Place<\/th>\n<th>Player<\/th>\n<th>Country<\/th>\n<th>Prize<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>Alexander Ivarsson<\/td>\n<td>Sweden<\/td>\n<td>$88,292<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>Karim Maekelberg<\/td>\n<td>Belgium<\/td>\n<td>$61,071<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>Blaz Zerjav<\/td>\n<td>Slovenia<\/td>\n<td>$41,741<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>Jesse Fonseca<\/td>\n<td>Brazil<\/td>\n<td>$28,329<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Fabrice Bigot<\/td>\n<td>United Kingdom<\/td>\n<td>$18,947<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<td>Ognyan Dimov<\/td>\n<td>Bulgaria<\/td>\n<td>$14,020<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<td>Batha Cristian<\/td>\n<td>Hungary<\/td>\n<td>$10,506<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Donchev Does Bulgaria Proud<\/h2>\n<p>Bulgarian <strong>Vladislav Donchev<\/strong> gave his PartyPoker account a significant boost after he outlasted 3,922 opponents in the MILLIONS Online Super 100, and turned his $109 investment into a $57,030 payday.<\/p>\n<p>Some 580 of the 3,923 entrants won a share of the guarantee-busting 392,300 prize pool, a min-cash tipping the scales at $224.Making deep runs but falling short of the seven-handed final table were such luminaries as <strong>Martins Adeniya<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/blog\/en\/will-kassouf-turns-e109-satellite-into-ipm-main-event-title.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Will Kassouf<\/strong><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/blog\/en\/astedt-takes-down-1050-partypoker-championship-for-186k.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Niklas Astedt<\/strong><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/blog\/en\/wpt-online-championship-victory-is-jeppssons-career-highlight.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Christian Jeppsson<\/strong><\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/blog\/en\/ventura-leads-from-start-to-finish-and-wins-cpp-main-event.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Diego Ventura<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>All but two of the seven finalists saw their $109 buy-in swell to a five-figure sum. <strong>Juan Lamprea<\/strong> and <strong>Nicolas Maillaud<\/strong>, the first two casualties of the final table, still collected $6,293 and $8,462, which is a great result for a $109 initial investment.<\/p>\n<p>Brazilian duo J<strong>oao Matos<\/strong> and <strong>Thiago Taira<\/strong> crashed out in fifth and fourth place respectively, finishes worth $11,857 and $17,267.
