October 4 was another action-packed Sunday in the online poker tournament world and there were plenty of familiar names who found themselves in the winner’s circle.
Adrian Mateos was one such winner, triumphing in the $5,250 buy-in High Rollers Blade Prime at GGPoker for a cool $95,537.
Bert Stevens was the unfortunate soul who burst the money bubble. His seventh-place finish meant he went home empty-handed although he did win almost $400,000 last week so it’s hard to feel sorry for him!
Ole Schemion was the first superstar to see a return on his investment, Sixth-place weighed in at $11,956. “L Levinskas” crashed out in fifth for $17,801 before Christian Rudolph bowed out in fourth and padded his bankroll with $26,502.
Heads-up was set when Brock Wilson busted in third for $39,457, Mateos and Sean Winter locked horns heads-up, Mateos got the job done and banked the $95,537 top prize, leaving Winter to scoop a $58,745 consolation prize.

Canada’s “Yaawn” got their hands on the largest prize of the weekend courtesy of being the last player standing in the High Roller MILLION$ event. Some 454 players made it through to the final day’s action on October 4 and Yaawn outlasted them all.
Everyone who navigated their way to the final table guaranteed themselves a five-figure score with the top three finishers netting six-figures.
“BadCards”, “WhyNotChili”, “blufferbaba”, and “grosgf” all fell in quick succession, leaving only five players in the hunt for the gargantuan top prize. Those five became four when “halom” ducked out, then “DonPepe” saw their tournament end in fourth-place, a finish worth $88,658.
Third-place and $129,391 went to “ravagee111” of Moldova, which left Yaawn and United Kingdom-based Belgian Kenny Hallaert heads-up. Hallaert fell at the final hurdle and secured a $188,837 prize, leaving the champion to get their hands on a cool $275,594.
