partypoker Sunday LIVE is Done for Another Week
The action is all complete now for partypoker Sunday LIVE with the conclusion of The Grand.
The Grand
It was far from an easy ride, especially given that he came into heads-up with a healthy chip lead, but Shaun Conroy emerged victorious from a bloody duel with Benjamin Chalot in The Grand. Conroy made it through 209 entries to grab the top prize, which came out of a total prize pool worth $208,538.
Conroy was an early chip leader before the day began, but he had to battle his way back into it. He got heads-up with a huge lead over Benjamin Chalot, but Chalot battled back to even it up and take the lead. They traded blows for nearly an hour heads-up as the lead changed between them, and both players had more than one chance to win it.

The Weekender Final Day
The Weekender Final Day is now over, and "andremylov" bested the field of 146 to put $14,846 in the bank in total. That field size didn't quite hit the guarantee, so they were playing for the $100,000 guarantee.

Will You Become partypoker’s Legend of the Week?
The Daily Legends tournaments at partypoker have proven to be hugely popular thanks to their player-friendly formats. partypoker has slashed the late registration period, limited re-entries, and devised a structure that allows players to head to bed at a reasonable time without turning the tournament into a crap shoot.
Now is the time to try out some of those Daily Legends tournaments because partypoker has launched its Legend of the Week promotion that adds $60,000 worth of value to its Daily Legends schedule every week.
Legend of the Week sees you earn points for playing in selected Daily Legends tournaments from Monday through Saturday. Points are awarded for playing the eligible tournaments, but you earn far more by reaching a final table or by going all the way and becoming a Daily Legends champion.
