Knockout punches were thrown last night as the weekly ‘Friday Night Fight’ was held on Full Tilt Poker. Instead of going on the town for the night these players decided to stay on the poker felt and it paid off more some of them. 387 players entered the tournament making the prize pool a cool $154,800. The player to walk away the ‘Friday Night Fight’ with his gloves in the air was ‘laburro’ who took home the first place prize valued at $38,700. The player who was down for the 10 count in heads up play was ‘stav85’ who still took an impressive $24,768 for his second place efforts. |

The Party Poker Premier League took form as the best of the best showed up for the competition. The 4th annual PPPL saw Daniel Negreanu, Luke Schwartz, Roland De Wolfe, Phil Laak, and JC Tran came out to battle it out for the number spot. One of the most entertaining poker players in the world today, Phil ‘The Unabomber’ Laak, took home Heat #1 as he beasted his way through this difficult field. Laak took home $32,000 for his win which is basically pocket change for these high end poker players. Laak ships Heat #1 as new faces will show up tomorrow with more players taking the felt for Heat #2. |

Doyles Room made vast improvement to their online poker room by bringing back their $50K Bounty Tournament. The tournament tonight has a buy-in set at $27.50 and any player that knocks out a Doyles Room pro will be rewarded $1,000. The man of the poker room, Doyle Brunson, is scheduled to partake in the event, but it is uncertain since he recently had dental surgery. Knowing the ‘Texas Dolly’ he will take some medicine and play some poker. All players to play in the tournament will have a chance to win up to $50,000 in bounty money. Good luck to all that play. |
