The MILLIONS Online festival crowned four new winners at partypoker on Friday, March 5 including Alexandros Theologis, Eelis Parssinen, Daniel Koloszar, and Joshua Hoesel.

Meanwhile, Harald Sammer bagged the chip lead in the partypoker MILLIONS Online Closer on Day 1a.

The MILLIONS Online #23 Mix-Max boasted a $3,200 buy-in along with a generous $300,000 guaranteed prize pool. The guarantee was just met with 100 entrants getting into the action.

The one-day event, which lasted slightly more than 8 1/2 hours, featured a unique format featuring eight-max action for the first 15 blind levels. The rest of the way was six-max barring the seven-max final table.

Two players with Union Jack flags but from different countries in Greece's Alexandros Theologis and Spain's Adrian Mateos battled it out in heads-up play. Mateos was denied the title and had to settle for the runner-up prize of $49,929 after Theologis beat the Spanish poker superstar to win his first MILLIONS Online title along with the $74,937 top prize.

The final table was full of superstars. Rui Ferreira joined Theologis and Mateos on the podium before he bowed out in third place for $34,855. Others at the final table outside of the top three included Pavel Plesuv (fourth - $24,014), William Foxen (fifth - $17,718), Andrii Novak (sixth - $13,956), Samy Ouellani (seventh - $10,072).

Patrick Leonard, who fell just short of a final table appearance, finished the best among the partypoker Ambassadors with a tenth-place performance for $7,860.

Meanwhile, Daniel Koloszar won a mini-version of this event featuring a $320 buy-in and a $66,000 guarantee to bank the $13,138 top prize.
