2020 partypoker US Network Online Mini Series

The 2020 partypoker US Network Online Mini Series Event #3: $500 GTD NLH Super Bounty Turbo came and went Wednesday afternoon with as much action as its name suggested, with "red335xturbo" revving their way to the finish line and outlasting a field of 107 for the first-place prize of $73.25 plus an additional $9.60 in bounties.

Prizes for this tournament were dispersed among many, as half of each player's entry went to a bounty.

The cash of $19 plus $33.60 in total bounties brought their payday up to $52,60, fourth-most in the tournament.

When four remained, "JBird424" had the chip lead but "red335xturbo" quickly rose to the top of the counts from there. "pqdrummer84" was then eliminated fourth, and "JBird424" followed in third after bluffing off all of their chips into"red335xturbo" when they had made a full house.

"red335xturbo" took more than 75% of the chips in play into the heads-up match against "phatchoy" but lost the chip lead in the first handful of minutes. However, they quickly regained it and then some more after making a straight in a hand that saw three streets of betting. "phatchoy" was then short, and got all in with king-four suited against "red335xturbo's" ace-trey. No king or four came on the jack-high runout and "red335xturbo" became the one to claim glory.
