One of the exciting aspects of the partypoker Grand Prix has been the Golden Chip promotion that has run in each event.
The way to qualify is simple: make it through the Online Day 2 into the Live Day 3 and you're in contention! The next step is to make the final table of eight, and Jeff Cuccurullo has done just that.
Canada's Cuccurullo and the United Kingdom's Nicholas Riseley were the only two players to qualify from the online Day 2, but Riseley's passport was expired and he couldn't get it renewed in time.
Cuccurullo has locked up a hefty Caribbean Poker Party package worth $10,000, which includes a $5,300 MILLIONS Main Event Seat ($5M guaranteed, $1M to the winner), $2,000 cash for flights, and seven nights all-inclusive stay for two people.
Congratulations!

The flop came 
and Burtein extended his lead much, much further with a set of aces. The turn was the 
and Portelance was drawing dead to the 
on the river.
