The $5,250 Bounty Hunters Super High Roller was one of the absolute highlights of the Sunday Grind.

99 elite players created an illustrious field and a large $495,000 prize pool with a whopping $118K up top.

So it was no surprise that several top players such as partypoker pro Patrick “pads1161” Leonard, Bruno “great_dant” Volkmann, Pedro Garagnani and Daniel Smiljkovic made the final table.

Smiljkovic was unstoppable and went all the way to victory by defeating fellow poker pro Theo Arnoldi heads-up for the title.

Andras Nemeth Wins SCOOP 41-H after Four-Way-Deal 

Over at PokerStars the SCOOP is obviously what it is all about at the moment. Event 41-H, a $1,050 No-Limit Hold’em 6-max, had a fantastic turnout.

A staggering 603 player absolutely smashed the $450,000 guarantee and created a $603,000 prize pool.

Many big names had deep runs and two online legends even made it to the final table with Rui “RuiNF” Ferreira and Andras “probirs” Nemeth.

After Austrian player “Gogac sniper” busted in 5th place for $28,004, the remaining four players agreed to a deal.

The 4-way ICM deal secured the Portuguese online legend “RuiNF” the biggest payday, while it was his Hungarian counterpart “probirs”, who added another SCOOP title to his incredible results.

Biggest prized event yesterday was Event #03, the $40,000 Mystery Bounty High Roller Opening.

It attracted 76 entries, which was not enough to cover the $40,000 guarantee and there was a small overlay.

Heads-Up for the title were “Scholomance” from Montenegro and “riclam02” from Germany.

The latter had the better end for himself and landed a $16,880 score, since he hunted a massive $10,880 in bounties, which came on top of the $6,000 first place price.
