Three Grand Prix Summer Champions Crowned In PLO8 Events On PartyPoker

The Grand Prix Summer series continues on PartyPoker, with three more championship titles earned in three more championship events. All three of these events (numbered events #07, #08, and #09) were pot limit Omaha eight-or-better tournaments. The buy-ins went from $1.10 to $33.

All three of these Grand Prix Summer events were progressive knock-out tourneys with player bounties sometimes being worth rather more than the cash prizes. This was certainly the case for "Alvaro Veritas” who won Grand Prix Summer #07 PLO8 PKO Championship for a total of $3,027. More than half ($1,659) of his win came from bounties he collected along the way.

This $33 buy-in event attracted 647 entrants creating a total prize pool of $19,410, half of which went into the main prize pool, half in bounties on the player’s heads.

“Alvaro Veritas” ultimately beat “Jumashouse” heads up to take the title. “Jumashouse” went home with $1,787 total. Their cash was made up of $1,366 for second place and $421 in bounties.
