April 19 was a big Sunday for Team partypoker\u2019s Josip \u201cJozinhoPP\u201d Simunic<\/strong><\/a> who took down a POWERFEST event and reached the final table of another. There were also big scores for Kristen \u201cKrissyb24\u201d Bicknell<\/strong>, Anatoly \u201cNL_Profit\u201d Filatov<\/strong><\/a> and a handful of others. Let\u2019s check out the recent POWERFEEST highlights.<\/p>\n

POWERFEST: $75K Gtd 8-6 Mix-Max Turbo<\/h2>\n

A field of 306 players bought into the $75K Gtd 8-6 Mix-Max<\/strong> event for $320 and it was Josip \u201cJozinhoPP\u201d Simunic<\/strong> who outlasted them all. Our Austrian star turned his $320 investment into a cool $20,946 prize.<\/p>\n

Simunic defeated \u201cWhale_bone7\u201d<\/strong> heads-up to lock in the title, resigning the runner-up to a $13,999 consolation prize.<\/p>\n

Earlier at the six-handed final table, \u201cBuddyRW\u201d<\/strong> fell in sixth for $3,672. \u201cClubsMaker\u201d<\/strong> joined them on the rail in fifth-place and won $5,049. Fourth-place and $7,344 went to \u201ctazmania888\u201d<\/strong> before pRayfoRmeRcy21 crashed out in third for a $10,098 prize.<\/p>\n

Simunic also reached the final table of the POWERFEST: $150K 8-Max Grind<\/strong>. He came fourth from 704 entries in the $320 buy-in event and banked an additional $12,650. Awesome stuff from that man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

POWERFEST: $400K Gtd 8-Max PKO<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The POWERFEST: $400K Gtd 8-Max PKO<\/strong> attracted a field of 220-player who all paid $2,100 to enter. Team Online\u2019s Jordan \u201cThe Undecided\u201d Drummond<\/strong><\/a> burst the final table and walked away with $9,937 with bounties included.<\/p>\n

\u201chotsince92\u201d<\/strong> and \u201ccmjuc\u201d<\/strong> were the eight-handed final table\u2019s first casualties before \u201cDunderBlubb\u201d<\/strong> fell in sixth and scooped a total of $21,231 thanks to more than $11,000 worth of bounties.<\/p>\n

\u201cMUNJOShuHa\u201d<\/strong> saw their tournament end in a fifth-place finish worth a combined $27,289. Then our own Anatoly \u201cNL_Profit\u201d Filatov<\/strong><\/a> fell by the wayside in fourth and walked away with a total prize that weighed in at $22,552.<\/p>\n

Heads-up was set when \u201cONRYSUITED\u201d<\/strong> was disposed of in third-place. This deep run saw them bank $25,267 from the main prize pool plus an additional $1,575 worth of bounties.<\/p>\n

\u201cPpPlayer1357\u201d<\/strong> got their hands on the lion\u2019s share of the prize pool after sending \u201cShortSqueeze\u201d<\/strong> home in second-place. That second-place finish yielded a $50,029 combined prize. First-place weighed in at a cool $81,294 with bounties included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

POWERFEST: Big Game $1M Gtd Phase Final<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The POWERFEST: Big Game $1M Gtd Phase Final<\/strong> was huge once again and it looked like we would have two Team partypoker members at the eight-handed final table. That was until Nikita \u201cfish2013\u201d Bodyakovskiy<\/strong><\/a> departed in ninth-place for $19,978.<\/p>\n

Bodyakovskiy\u2019s exit left Kristen \u201cKrissyb24\u201d Bicknell<\/strong><\/a> as the only orange diamond in the field. Unfortunately, Bicknell\u2019s run was stopped in seventh-place and she won $35,446.<\/p>\n

The top three finishers each won six-figure prizes, although fourth-place almost crept into this amount. \u201cCjm1989\u201d<\/strong> earned $97,738 for their impressive tournament.<\/p>\n

\u201cFamilyMan72\u201d<\/strong> was the third-place finisher, a position that paid $130,184. Second-place and $185,609 went to \u201cAchtungdiekurve\u201d<\/strong> which meant \u201cIIIIIIIIII\u201d<\/strong> was the tournament\u2019s champion, an accolade that came with a gigantic $256,502 cash prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

We have to give a shout out to Patrick \u201cPatrick_Leonard\u201d Leonard<\/strong><\/a> and Jordan \u201cThe Undecided\u201d Drummond<\/strong><\/a> who went super deep in the $150,000 Gtd 6-Max PKO<\/strong> event. Leonard came unstuck in seventh-place for $4,980 in total, with Drummond being the first to fall at the final table, a finish worth $9,793.<\/p>\n
