Tuesday night was bounty night for the partypoker US Network Online Series, and it began with Event #5: $2,000 GTD Red Chip Bounty. The $20 buy-in tournament drew 289 entries due to its unlimited re-entry format and generated a total prize pool of $5,202, more than two-and-a-half times the guarantee.

When all was said and done, "KISSMYACE87" was the one left with all the chips after roughly five hours of play, earning a first-place prize of $913.02 ($883.02 prize plus $30 in bounties). They took a top-10 stack into the money bubble and proceeded to find themselves with the chip lead almost an hour later when the final table was reached and they knocked out "Pudgy53" (ninth place) on one of the very first hands of the final table.

A Furious Pace To the Finish

The late registration period of more than three-and-a-half hours saw players continue to take shots at building a stack until the very last minute. Once re-entries were no longer allowed, the blinds quickly caught up and it took less than three full levels for the field to reach 30 and make it into the money.

From there, players continued to fall as the final two tables were reached within two levels and twenty minutes after that, only nine remained. "Pudgy53" lost with ace-ten to the pocket queens of eventual champion "KISSMYACE87" to kick off the final table, and "BrigBeast06" and "Passias27" found themselves fall within the same level.

A short break in bust-outs happened as "amandarose_710" doubled through "Fastrayjr19", but the pair would eventually take third and fourth places respectively. "KISSMYACE87" would then begin the heads-up match with a slight deficit to eventual runner-up "Modaddy41", but they flopped trip eights and doubled to take a commanding lead and proceeded to seal the deal a few hands later, earning more than $900 combined among their prize and bounties as a result of their efforts.
