On the 10th day of August, Austria’s huiiiiiiiiii(pictured) chopped the PokerStars Sunday 500, his second big-time Sunday Major win in the last two years. He is quickly nearing $3.6 million in career online poker tournament earnings and sits at #4 in the PocketFives Rankings. His chopping partner in the Sunday 500 was fellow PocketFiver lilachaa […]

We have a brand new member of the top 10 worldwide in the PocketFives Online Poker Rankings, Easylimp(pictured). The England pokerplayer moved up from #26 this week to #8, his first time cracking the top 10, on the strength of an outright win in the PokerStars Sunday 500 over the weekend for $69,000.

If you look down the list of the largest cashes for Alen Bilic (pictured), who is known on PocketFives as lilachaa, you’ll see the PokerStars Sunday 500 four times. In fact, four of his top ten largest cashes ever have come from the Sunday tournament, which he final tabled thrice in 2013 (March, May, and […]
