This past week many online poker players logged on to Absolute Poker to compete in the weekly $150,000 guaranteed tournament. One hundred and twenty one players registered for the tournament and paid the $1,000 plus $50 to compete.

Only eighteen players would earn a payout so everyone competing wanted to make it to the top of the tournament. The competition would be tough and a few notable cashes in the tournament would be Steve “STEVOL” Leonard in 18th and Nicholas “BLUESIUSX” Blumenthal in 12th, they played well but were unable to make the final table.

Those who did make the final table would play their best to try and earn the almost $40,000 first place prize. When it came down to heads up play, James “JDAWG217” Navolanic and Michael “MIKEIVEY” Meredith would be left to fight it out for the top prize. Meredith held the chip lead when the final hand was played and he took the win from Navolanic.
