Two more significant PartyPoker McLaren Turbo Series events have crowned their champions, with those two worthy winners padding their bankrolls with combined scores in excess of $16,000.
The Sunday Party, PartyPoker’s flagship tournament, received the McLaren Turbo Series treatment this week, giving it a unique twist. The first three levels each lasted 20 minutes before reverting a seven-minute clock for the remainder of the event.
Team PartyPoker’s brotherly duo, Jaime and Matt Staples, were among the 1,031 entrants who created a $103,100 prize pool. Matt Staples crashed out before the money places, but Jaime finished in 90th place, and walked away with $187.70 with bounties included.
Each of the seven players who reached the final table ensured they would scoop more than $1,500 for their efforts.
Seventh-place finisher “DogecoinFounder” banked $2,536, almost $1,000 more than “xXGlamBabeXx” despite the latter finishing once place above them. That is the beauty of progressive knockout tournaments; those bounties start adding up. Although “DogecoinFounder” won $940 from the main prize pool compared to “xXGlamBabeXx” who netted $1,335, the former helped themselves to $1,596 worth of bounties, with the latter only collecting $262.
Fifth place and $2,980 went to “Shin-chan” before “Avada Kedavra” claimed a $4,674 payout shortly after their demise in fourth. The latest Sunday party progressed to the heads-up stage when “FLALF” found themselves void of chips, although a $5,321 score should go some way to numbing the pain inflicted by their defeat.
The heads-up duo of “Porrporrporr” and “nando Olimpio” locked in at least $6,132 from the main prize pool, leaving a final bounty payment worth over $6,300 to fight for. “Porrporrporr” clinched their ninth bounty of the event when they sent “nando Olimpio” to the showers, resulting in a total haul worth $12,479; the runner-up banked $8,940.
