$2.5M Gtd Monster Series Day 1 Recap<\/h2>\n

Monster Series #03-H: $150K Gtd 8-Max PKO<\/strong><\/p>\n

Entries:<\/strong> 3,299
\nBuy-in:<\/strong> $55
\nPrize pool:<\/strong> $173,197
\nPlaces paid:<\/strong> 440<\/p>\n

A huge field of 3,299 took part in the Monster Series #03-H: $150K Gtd 8-Max PKO<\/strong> on Monster Series Day 1 and created a guarantee-busting prize pool of $173,197. It was Brazil\u2019s Ineedcagari who got their hands on the lion\u2019s share of this prize money, namely the $10,050 top prize and an additional $8,469 from the bounty prize pool.<\/p>\n

The Brazilian defeated \u201ckuzja06\u201d<\/strong> of Russia heads-up to secure the title with the Russian padding their own bankroll with a prize made up of $10,032 from the main prize pool and $1,372 worth of bounties.<\/p>\n

Everyone at the eight handed final table won more than $1,300 for their $55 investment, with bounties included, but we have to single out \u201cLUCK4LUCK\u201d<\/strong> of Estonia for the fact they won $1,626 from the bounty prize pool with only our worthy champion getting their hands on more scalps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Monster Series #02-H: $100K Gtd 8-Max Deepstack<\/strong><\/p>\n

Entries:<\/strong> 2,592
\nBuy-in:<\/strong> $55
\nPrize pool:<\/strong> $129,600
\nPlaces paid:<\/strong> 344<\/p>\n

One of the largest prizes of Monster Series Day 1 came in the $55 buy-in Monster Series #02-H: $100K Gtd 8-Max Deepstack<\/strong> event that saw a field of 2,592 compete for a slice of the $129,600 prize pool. This was shared among the top 344 finishers.<\/p>\n

Each of the eight finalists won at least $1,321 and the top two finishers each turned their initial investments into a five-figure prize. Third placed \u201cNiniGehtInsKino\u201d<\/strong> almost won five figures, their prize weighed in at $9,534.<\/p>\n

Second place went to Brazil\u2019s \u201cmoonrock99\u201d<\/strong> who collected $14,819 for their impressive run. The player of the hour, however, was Germany\u2019s \u201cOhhYeahYeah\u201d<\/strong> who was probably making similar noises to their username when they realised they had secured a $20,947 payout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Ineedcagari helped themselves to another $10,858 by taking down their second event of Monster Series Day 1, the Monster Series #01-H: $75K Gtd 8-Max Grind<\/strong> tournament.<\/p>\n

The tournament ended in a heads-up deal with Ineedcagari banking $10,858 and the runner-up, \u201cfaby.r\u201d<\/strong> of Colombia, walking away with $9,857 for a $33 buy-in, which is impressive to say the least. The big prizes were made possible by 2,502 players turning out in force and creating a $75,060 prize pool.<\/p>\n

All but one of the finalists won at least $1,200 for their effort with \u201cbarilyn monroe\u201d winning $765 for their eighth place exit.
