The series has gotten off to a great start, with several players already scoring huge paydays
Two poker regulars recently took down the main events of the Global Poker Bounty Series VI, a highly anticipated online tournament. The series, which features both Gold Coin (GC) and Sweeps Coin (SC) prize pools, is nearing its end, with the Mystery Bounty Freeroll Finales set for September 15. The Bounty Series VI marks the first major tournament since Global Poker announced its expanded partnership with Michael Phelps, offering plenty of action and multiple chances for players to qualify for the finales.
In the GC Main Event, which had a guaranteed prize pool of GC 50,000,000, “TheArtist2” emerged victorious after defeating “Jdevon” in a heads-up play. The tournament attracted 182 players, and “TheArtist2” walked away with a substantial prize of GC 9,225,000. “Jdevon” earned GC 6,937,500 for second place. The final table was rounded out by “XTheCouzx” in third (GC 9,025,000), “Thefolder” in fourth (GC 3,387,500), and “RityBndrVbs” in fifth (GC 5,162,500).
