888poker round-up

Every day, 888poker hosts some of the best poker tournaments found anywhere online, not only are they value-packed, but they also have some hefty guarantees attached to them.

The biggest winners at 888poker this week were “BenGvnn” and “DerEinzahlR” thanks to them finishing one-two in the $100,000 Mega Deep on Sunday. The $215 buy-in tournament attracted 649 players this weekend, smashing the guarantee by some $29,800 in total.

BenGvnn and DerEinzahlR found themselves as the last two players in the Mega Deep and decided to discuss a deal for the remaining prize pool. Those discussions were successful, and they walked away with $21,382.61 and $20,477.89 for their efforts.

Earlier this week, we mentioned how British pro Oliver Price reached the final tables of three of online poker’s Sunday Majors. One of those final tables was at 888poker, the $80,000 Baby Whale, which Price won after a heads-up chop with “trino11.”

Price’s win netted him $16,345.09, with trino11 claiming $16,252.46. The victory was made sweeter by the fact the likes of Conor “grandma1954” Beresford, Michael “wywrotx” Wywrot, and Dan “xXGlamBabeXx” Wilson were present at the final table.

One of Price’s fellow Brits joined him in the winner’s circle on Sunday and added $16,182.75 to his bankroll. Scott Margereson, better-known as “AggroSantos” in online poker circles, triumphed in the $80,000 Sunday Challenge, a $90 buy-in event that allows one rebuy, which attracted 664 entrants this week.

This win pushed Margereson’s lifetime online winnings past $3.5 million.
