Poland-based Lithuanian Dominykas Mikolaitis is on cloud nine today after securing a monster-sized payout worth $119,724. Mikolaitis captured this impressive sum after coming out on top in the $1,050 GGMasters High Rollers event, a tournament that saw 853 entrants create a guarantee-busting $853,000 prize pool.
Each of the nine finalists turned their $1,050 investment into at least a five-figure score. Daniel Dvoress was the first of those finalists to fall by the wayside; he collected $13,130. Dvoress would later win the $5,250 Bounty Hunters Super High Roller for $56,255.
"HustleInWien" and Luciano Hollanda were the next casualties. This talented duo padded their bankrolls with scores worth $17,309 and $22,817, respectively. Then came the exits of "new7legend7" and Yuhan "HansNevrLose" Liu, finishes worth £30,077 and $39,649.
Brazilian Fernando "fapk" Karam busted in fourth for $52,266 with fellow Samba star Rodrigo Selouan finishing in third for $68,898.
Heads-up pitted Mikolaitis against Argentina's Augusto "Betylafea" Hagen. Despite a $29,000 difference between first and second place, the heads-up duo neglected to strike a deal, meaning Hagen had to make do with a $90,822 consolation prize, leaving Mikolaitis to bank the colossal $119,724 top prize.

Suzuki Rides Off With the $99,520 Bounty Hunters HR Top Prize
This weekend's $525 Bounty Hunters HR Main Event drew in 2,353 entrants who created a $1,176,500 prize pool. A whopping $99,520 of that pot went to Brazil's Jose "Donato" Suzuki, who raced off with the title.
None of the nine finalists scooped less than five figures thanks to the bounty element of this exciting, high-stakes event. The likes of Victor "GHOSTEADO" Teixeira (8th - $14,748), Aleksei Petrov (6th - $20,721), and Charles "TheMadQueen" La Boissonniere (3rd - $42,0479) all reached the final table but fell short of glory.
Suzuki took on "Melikson" in the one-on-one section of the tournament. Both players secured more than $48,200 from the main prize pool, leaving the substantial bounties to play for. Suzuki got his hands on all the chip in play, resulting in an impressive $99,520 payday, of which $51,181 came from the bounty prize pool. Melikson walked away with a second-place finish and $72,409 to show for their efforts.
