Yuri Dzivielevski

The first 24 of a scheduled 184 Bounty Builder Turbo Series events are in the bag, and plenty of big names have padded their bankrolls in those events. Yuri ��theNERDguy�� Dzivielevski was one of those top pros.

Dzivielevski came out on top of a 118 strong field in the $5,200 NLHE 8-Max Titans Event, a tournament with a $500,000 guaranteed prize pool, although PokerStars paid out $590,000.

The eight-handed final table was a star-studded affair, as you would expect from such a high buy-in tournament. It grew less shark-infested with the exit of Adrian ��Amadi_017�� Mateos in eighth place. Mateos banked $29,118 thanks to accumulating $18,281 worth of bounties along the way. Only the eventual champion secured a larger bounty payment!

Lucas ��YRWTHMELTHR�� Greenwood and Argentinian superstar Damian ��pampa27�� Salas were the next players to bow out. Greenwood walked away with $17,737 while Salas scooped $19,303.

Then came the elimination of Pascal "P?ffchen" Hartmann in fifth place. Hartmann reeled in a $32,675 prize before former WSOP Main Event champion Martin ��M.nosbocaJ�� Jacobson fell by the wayside in fourth, a finish worth $30,073. Amazingly, Jacobson did not send a single opponent to the showers on the way to his fourth place finish.

Heads-up was set when Will ��hellzito�� Arruda ran out of steam in third place. Arruda netted $51,080.

Dzivielevski and Estonia��s ��ULOSEMFKR!!�� fought it out one-on-one fr the lion��s share of the remaining prize pool. The bounty payments were huge by this stage, so there was a lot on the line. The Estonian could not find a way past their Brazilian opponent and had to be content with a $71,792 payout. Dzivielevski, on the other hand, got his hands on $169,760.

Peru Has a Bounty Builder Turbo Series Champions

��xXROMmMEOXx�� of Peru is a Bounty Builder Turbo Series champion after they outlasted 13,185 opponents in the special edition of the Sunday Million. PokerStars paid out $1,318,600, almost a third more than the advertised $1 million guarantee! Half the pot went onto the heads of each entrant, with the remaining 50% shared among the top 2,366 finishers.

All but two of the nine players at the final table secured a five-figure payout, but still enjoyed a healthy return on their $109 investment.

By the time there were only two players remaining, xXROMmMEOXx and ��POG_Q4��, the main prize pool paid out more than $55,000. Someone, however, was going to win almost $40,000 worth of bounties! xXROMmMEOXx was that someone after the Peruvian defeated the Brazilian in the final clash of the tournament.

First place, with bounties included, weighed in at $94,407, while the runner-up saw their poker arsenal reloaded with $69,540, which is plenty of ammunition for the remainder of the Bounty Builder Turbo Series.
