Our Daily Legends<\/strong><\/a> continue to be extremely popular, especially on Sundays when they have their guarantees boosted. Several stellar names took down Daily Legends on November 8 and now have substantially larger bankrolls than at the start of the weekend.<\/p>\n

Here are some of the highlights.<\/p>\n

Jonathan Proudfoot<\/strong> of the United Kingdom walked away with the largest prize at partypoker this weekend thanks to coming out on top in the High Roller Big Game<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Some 157 players bought in for $2,600 and the top 20 finishers won a slice of the $398,750 prize pool. Hungarian legend Andras Nemeth<\/strong> burst the bubble, which locked up a min-cash of $6,180.62 for the surviving players.<\/p>\n

Such luminaries as Sam Grafton<\/strong>, Simon Mattsson<\/strong>, Dimitar Danchev<\/strong><\/a>, and William Foxen<\/strong> all saw a return on their investment.<\/p>\n

Each of the nine finalists guaranteed themselves a five-figure score. Team partypoker\u2019s Kristen Bicknell<\/strong> finished in ninth for $10,566.87 before teammate Mikita Badziakouski<\/strong><\/a> fell in eighth for $12,760.00.<\/p>\n

Double WSOP bracelet winner Elio Fox<\/strong> and Netherlands\u2019 Jacob Verloop<\/strong> were the next casualties. They scooped $15,551.25 and$18,940.62 respectively. Mark Radoja<\/strong> ($23,925.00) ran out of steam in fifth-place before Christopher Putz<\/strong> saw his tournament end abruptly in fourth-place for a $33,893.75 score.<\/p>\n

Heads-up was set when Pascal Hartmann<\/strong><\/a> busted in third for $47,180.10. This left Proudfoot and Abdelhakim Zoufri<\/strong> as the last players standing. The difference between first and second place was worth more than $25,000 but the heads-up duo didn\u2019t strike a deal. This meant Zoufri collected $64,788.90 when he lost the one-on-one battle with Proudfoot who banked an impressive $89,997.94.<\/p>\n

9<\/td>\nPeter Jetten<\/td>\nCanada<\/td>\n$3,708.37<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Three members of Team partypoker navigated their way to the money places of the Big Game<\/strong> but, sadly, they couldn\u2019t quite get the job done.<\/p>\n

Josip Simunic<\/strong><\/a> netted $1,730.57 for his 31st place finish with Jeff Gross<\/strong><\/a> busting in 16th place, a finish worth $2,674.52. Dzmitry Urbanovich<\/strong> went the deepest of the orange diamonds, eventually busting in 12th place and turning $530 into $3,191.45.<\/p>\n

The final table was a star-studded affair. Peter Jetten<\/strong>\u2019s exit in ninth left the waters slightly less infested with sharks. Jetten was joined on the sidelines first by Mathew Suarez<\/strong> then by Alexander van Der Swaluw and Malta\u2019s Nicolas Mailaud<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Matthieu Rodriguez<\/strong> scooped the tournament\u2019s first five-figure prize, namely $10,608.20, when he crashed and burned in fifth-place. Enrico Camosci<\/strong>, all the way from sunny Mexico, bowed out in fourth, a finish worth $14,833.50.<\/p>\n

Any of the final three players would have been a worthy champion, but only one person can win a poker tournament. That person wasn\u2019t David Yan<\/strong> because he came unstuck in third, for $20,946.70.<\/p>\n

Brazil\u2019s Sander Totuli<\/strong> then defeated Fabian Gumz<\/strong> heads-up to claim the $42,477.90 top prize and leave Gumz to reel in a $30,521.05 consolation prize.<\/p>\n

This week\u2019s Mini Big Game<\/strong> was anything but mini with a $106,815 prize pool up for grabs for a $55 buy-in. It ended in a three-handed chop where that trio shared a cool $38,000.<\/p>\n

Philip Jacobsen<\/strong> of Denmark finished in third and won $12,250.00 with Bertrand Evans<\/strong> banking $11,150.00 as part of the deal and an official runner-up finish. Norway\u2019s Tomasz Kwiecinski<\/strong> is the man credited with being the Mini Big Game champion, an accolade that came with $14,731.91.<\/p>\n
