  Visit Ultimate Bet |
Sunday is by far the biggest day for online pocker fans across all major online poker rooms; PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker and of course, UltimateBetPoker. The UltimateBet online poker room held its largest weekly poker tournament Sunday, a $200k Guarantee, attracting a field of 873 eager participants.
Opting to post the buy-in of $200+$15, the crowd of players at UltimateBet.com’s Sunday $200k GTD cumulatively brought in $174,600 of the guaranteed $200k prize pool, resulting in an overlay that left the online poker room to fork over the remaining $25,400.
The action got underway at it wasn’t long before the field decreased by half, then another half, until finally 10 players remained. The final table was packed with action as the competitors strove to outlast them all, vying for the top prize.
One by one, the final table faded until the ousting of “widebody” brought up heads-up play between American “irishgirl08” and Frenchman “yellowhat”. Both displayed an enormous level of skill throughout the online poker tournament, but in the end, only one could prevail.
Gabriel “yellowhat” Nassif was eliminated in 2nd place, pocketing $26,000 for is extraneous efforts, as “irishgirl08” emerged victorious. 32 year old Sheila of Northbrook, Illinois – known by her UltimateBet.net friends (and foes) as “irishgirl08”, took home the largest paycheck of the day for an immaculate 1st place finish, $45,000.

It seems every week we report a slight overlay at Full Tilt Poker’s weekly $750,000 Guaranteed online poker tournament, and why stop now? Yet another field of about 3,600 took to the tables this Sunday, resulting in a $22,600 addition to the pot, directly from Full Tilt Poker’s pocket, to cover the $750k GP.
Last weekend’s action was jam-packed with skilled maneuvers and sudden bust-outs as “sistabossen” whittled through the competition for a 1st place victory. After 9 hours and 4 minutes of unbridled cardroom conflict, “sistabossen” emerged from the dust cloud $132k richer.
The final table consisted of some highly experienced, veteran online poker players, including “KenRetaard” of Sweden, who went heads-up against “sistabossen” only to bust out in 2nd place for $80k. Just two weeks back, “KenRetaard” claimed a 3rd place cash of more than $50,000 at a $500k GP tourney, under his PokerStars nickname, “Skämmes”.
Coming in 3rd at the www.FullTilt.com $750k GP was “HojoMofo” of Brooklyn, New York. This esteemed online poker player has brought in well over $40,000 this year in Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars online poker tournaments combined.
