\nEntries: 278<\/strong>
\nPrize pool: $569,900<\/strong>
\nPlaces paid: 40<\/strong><\/p>\n

A field of 278 ensured the $500,000 guarantee in the KO Series #10-HR: $500K Gtd 8-Max<\/strong> event was surpassed by $69,900. It was the top 40 players who benefited the most from the chunky prize pool as they received prize money in addition to any bounty payments they collected along the way.<\/p>\n

The least anyone could take home from the final table was $6,068 plus their bounty payments. Sweden\u2019s \u201cpetdet3ctive\u201d<\/strong> finished in seventh place for $8,344 plus $6,562 to narrowly miss out on what would have been a second title of the series.<\/p>\n

Roberto \u201cWelshWizard\u201d Romanello<\/strong>, of Team partypoker fame, eventually busted in sixth place for $11,834 from the main prize pool and $9,023 worth of bounties. So close, yet so far away for the Welshman.<\/p>\n

Heads-up saw \u201cBatdog666\u201d<\/strong> of Austria fight it out with \u201cp0kchkmonsta\u201d<\/strong> of Canada for the lion\u2019s share of the bounties. Batdog666 busted in second place for $43,667 and a bounty payment of $14,879 leaving p0kchkmonsta to collect the $43,723 top prize and a colossal payment of $61,998 from the bounty prize pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The prize pool of the KO Series #10-H: $200K Gtd 8-Max<\/strong> event had $97,116 more in it than the advertised guarantee of $250,000 and this meant there were some juicy prizes and bounties awarded.<\/p>\n

It was a one-two for players calling Costa Rica home with \u201cscoopjackson9\u201d<\/strong> falling in second place for $22,717 and a bounty payment of $2,742, and \u201cifixforyou\u201d<\/strong> being crowned the tournament\u2019s champion, an accolade that came with a $22,752 prize and $31,613 from the bounty prize pool.<\/p>\n

Only the champion secured more bounties that fourth placed Russian \u201cilushan\u201d who scooped $3,368 from the bounty prize pool in addition to their $9,998 prize, going to show playing an aggressive style in PKO events can yield plenty of profit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
