The Poker Masters Online<\/strong><\/a> resumed on April 21 after one-day hiatus. The rest did the players the world of good because they turned out in force for the brace of tournaments on offer.<\/p>\n

Eighty-six players piled into the $10,300 NLHE 6-Max event to create a guarantee-busting $860,000 prize pool. Another 77-players exchanged $25,500 for the chance to win an 8-Max NLHE event, which resulted in $1,925,000 being paid out instead of the advertised $1 million!<\/p>\n

Poker Masters #20: $500K Gtd NLHE 6-Max<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The 20th Poker Masters event had a pretty ridiculous line-up and was practically impossible to select who was going to win the $269,013 top prize.<\/p>\n

Our own Joni Jouhkimainen<\/strong> got his hands on a $23,562 min-cash while he was grinding his way to victory in a POWERFEST event<\/a>. The Finn is some player.<\/p>\n

Such luminaries as Adrian Mateos<\/strong><\/a>, Jouhkimainen\u2019s fellow Finn Eelis Parssinen<\/strong>, Ali Imsirovic<\/strong> and Artur Martirosian<\/strong> all busted before the final table and secure $23,562 of $27,950.<\/p>\n

Dario Sammartino<\/strong> reached yet another Poker Masters final table but had to make do with the $36,550 sixth-place money. Jorryt Van Hoof<\/strong> is another grinder who has been hitting final tables with alarming regularity. This one ended in a fifth-place finish worth $53,750.<\/p>\n

Giuseppe Iadisernia<\/strong> fell in fourth and was the last player not to bank six-figures. Jake Schindler<\/strong> cashed for $103,200 when he exited in third, which left David Peters<\/strong> and Stephen O\u2019Dwyer<\/strong> to lock horns for the lion\u2019s share of the prize pool.<\/p>\n

O\u2019Dwyer brushed aside Peters to bank $269,013 resigning Peters to a $167,700 consolation prize.<\/p>\n

Poker Masters #19: $1M Gtd NLHE 8-Max<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A massive $1,925,000 was paid out to the top 10 finishers in the $25,500 NLHE 8-Max event. Van Hoof was the unfortunate soul who popped the money bubble, which was a massive $77,000 difference between busting and cashing.<\/p>\n

Andras Nemeth<\/strong><\/a> and Justin Bonomo fell before the final table, with Bartlomiej Machon<\/strong> being the final table\u2019s first casualty, a finish worth $81,812.<\/p>\n

Canada\u2019s Guillaume Nolet<\/strong> fell in seventh for $91,437 before George Wolff netted $105,875 for his sixth-place demise. Matthew Wantman<\/strong> and Luuk Gieles<\/strong> were the next to bust. Wantman secured a $134,750 prize while Gieles reeled in $173,250.<\/p>\n

David Peters<\/strong> won $259,875 when his tournament ended abruptly in third-place. This left Sam Greenwood<\/strong><\/a> and Pauli Ayras<\/strong> to fight it out for the huge $548,625 first-place prize. There was a $173,250 difference between first and second place, yet no deal was struck.<\/p>\n

This meant Greenwood collected $375,375 when he fell at the final hurdle. Ayras banked $548,625, which is the second-largest Poker Master Online prize of the series, only Jason Koon<\/strong><\/a> has won a larger prize.<\/p>\n
