Sunday, June 22nd saw some of the toughest players online make great runs and winning big. Yesterday also saw one of the best tournament players online final tabling not one major, but two!
The aforementioned player is jeffbeesdat, a longtime winner from Texas. Not only did he final table the Sunday Million on Poker Stars, but he also final tabled the Sunday Second Chance on Poker Stars! He was joined by some other tough competition in jlost88 (who final tabled the Sunday Million a month ago), and longtime MTT grinder, XCappucinoX1. Ultimately, jeffbeesdat fell in 6th, making a great showing and taking away $33,825. The day belonged to tEh_R3aLde4L, who suffered a two outer in three handed play, but grinded all the way back from 5 big blinds for the win!
