The Sunday Briefing: Ondrej "Vinkyy" Vinklarek Makes Three Final Tables

January 14, 2013

Mickey Doft Live Reporter

Even with all of the festivities at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure, some of the game's best found time to post solid results on the virtual felt over the weekend. Kevin "BeL0WaBOVe" Saul took second in the PokerStars Sunday Warm-Up while Adam "Roothlus" Levy and Scott Clements final tabled the Full Tilt $500K Guarantee. The biggest prize of the day went to "nietbangzijn " for winning the Sunday Million, but Ondrej "Vinkyy" Vinklarek stole the headlines by making three final tables for more than $110,000 combined.
