UBOC5: Brock Parker and Kevin Saul Cash in Event #18, Final Table Event #19 0001

UltimateBet and Absolute Poker are currently hosting the fifth installment of theUltimate Bet Online Poker Championship Series. The UBOC5 is a series of 20 tournaments offering a combined $4 million in guaranteed prize money. Two UBOC tournaments were scheduled to take place on Saturday,Event #18 $100 + $9 No-Limit with Unlimited Rebuys and Event #19 $300 + $20 8-Game Mix. The Mini-UBOC, which runs simultaneously with the UBOC and offers the same tournament at one-tenth the price, also served as an excellent option for those with a limited bankroll. The winner of each UBOC tournament not only received a nice payday, but a championship watch. In addition, anyone who eliminated a Team UB pro received $200 and a UBOC T-shirt.

The first event of the evening was Event #18 $100 + $9 No-Limit Hold��em Turbo with unlimited rebuys. The tournament had a $100,000 guaranteed prize pool and drew 269 players who generated 322 rebuys and 406 add-ons. Annie Duke (240th), Phil Hellmuth (162nd), Gary ��DEBO 34�� Debernardi (101st), Matt Graham (82nd) and Mark ��Poker Ho�� Kroon (60th) represented Team UB, but couldn��t crack the elusive money bubble. On the other hand, a number of poker pros managed to make deep runs. Brock ��MARIA NUCCIA�� Parker finished just inside the money in 24th place while Kevin ��BEL0WAB0VE�� Saul made the final two tables and busted in 18th.James ��MIG_NET�� Mackey has been one of the top performers in the UBOC5 and added to his r��sum�� by finishing in 14th place. A few eliminations later, Jamie ��KRYPTOKILLA�� Rosen became the final table bubble boy when he was knocked out in 10th place.

The final table saw Joseph ��JBLAZE20�� Chaplin (9th) and Michael ��RUSOSTREET�� Caruso (8th) make early exits, while Frank ��FBONACCI�� Bonacci and John ���CBLACKFOURS-�� May survived to do battle heads-up, with May ultimately claiming victory and the $26,000 first-place prize.
