Sunday, January 26th: PartyPokerLive Millions Satellite Stands Front And Center, As At Least (1) Player Will Book Their Ticket (Along With A $13,000 Package)!!!!

ICYMI: Saturday's tournament schedule kicked off at 11:00am, with an $80 No Limit Hold'em event, that carried a $1,500 guaranteed prize pool.  Registration was open through Level 8, and at the time of it's close, the tournament clock would show (15) entries (for a small overlay).  That meant that two players were scheduled to reach the money, and were in line for some pretty healthy payouts.  The action never reached heads-up play, as a four-way deal was agreed to (short of the schedule money), with the official results listed below:

1. Michael Sherbondy (Pompano Beach, FL) $445
2. Danny Blackburn (Deerfield Beach, FL) $425
3. Mohamad Mbaied (Boca Raton, FL) $422
4. Gerald Hertz (Pompano Beach, FL) $208

The day's headlining tournament was a $130 No Limit Hold'em ($10,000 GTD), which was slated in the 6:00pm time slot.  This tournament has been a great success over the past few months, with last night being no different.  Registration for the tournament closed with (143) entries, and an official prize pool of $13,871.  A total of (18) players reached the money, with the evening's action wrapping up in an eight-way chop, led by Ronald Campillo (Plantation, FL).  Official results from last night's tournament are listed below:

1. Ronald Campillo (Plantation, FL) $2,289
2. William Napier (Miami Beach, FL) $1,580
3. Bruno Fortini (Lauderhill, FL) $1,426
