Previous Daily $17K finalist hiskoa found his way to heads up at the PKR Open Bounty final table last night, where he overcame the challenge of Adelaide resident SPHANTOM. The Frenchman claimed his first PKR tournament victory, at his fifth final table. The Australian runner up was denied his second PKR win.

Of the other finalists, itsthefish continued his excellent recent form after deep finishes in a pair of Primetime events together worth $6,174. The PKR Community was represented by TheSqueeze, who added a 123rd final table to his resume. The result took the London-based Sunday Classic, Primetime and Daily $17K champ, currently ranked seventh in the Money List, to more than $93K in tournament winnings.

Bounties

PKR_Jake was first out of the door last night, finishing in 541st. His pocket eights run down by the KT of bauer33. Next out was PKR_Ashley, whose KQ lost the race against Vizopan's AJ. In an impressive week for the bounties, the remainder all finished inside the top 200, with PKR_Jamie busting next in 174th. His AQ couldn't dodge a king on the flop, and he fell at the hands of Kusken777's KQ.

PKR_Chrissie fought well without troubling the money places, busting in 133rd with AJ courtesy of cooper202's inexplicable preflop call with the powerhouse 85o. PKR_Michael followed soon after in 126th, his 88 second best to stewybaby's 99. That left only PKR_Jabba, whose typically boisterous play saw him reach the money, departing in 45th place for $61.15. That cash went to his conqueror SPHANTOM, who claimed $161 in bounty reward. The chips also enabled him to reach the final table and finish second for $1,767.
