partypoker MILLIONS Online: ‘Tuti_Frutti’ Tops Day 1B, Overlay Looms
After last Sunday’s partypoker MILLIONS Online Day 1A drew 709 players, partypoker was needing to average 431 players per flight through the remaining three starting flights if they hoped to avoid any overlay on the $20 million guarantee. Day 1B got them much closer but partypoker executives are suddenly fearing an overlay.
Sunday’s flight say 699 entrants put up the $10,000 buy-in to bring the total number of player to 1,408, leaving them 592 short of the guarantee with Monday’s Day 1C and 1D flights still to come.

Russia’s ‘Tuti_Frutti‘ topped the 115 players who survived Day 1B, ending with 21,655,138. That puts him ahead of Day 1A chip leader ‘jiggidyjigjohn‘ who finished with 20,120,995. No other Day 1B player finished with more than 20 million. The second biggest stack from Sunday’s starting flight belongs to ‘lazypeach‘ with 18,901,624.
Some of the notables who managed to bag on Day 1B and will play Day 2 on Monday include current World Series of Poker Main Event champ Hossein Ensan (8,775,983), Patrick_Leonard (7,396,791), John_Duthie (7,354,102), Joao ‘XjoaosimaoX’ Simao (5,389,773), and Patrick ‘Egption’ Tardif (4,958,134).
