888poker XL Spring Series

888poker is the place to be this weekend if you like affordable, well-structured online poker tournaments with juicy guaranteed prize pools. Seven events from the $1.5 million guaranteed XL Spring series take place over the weekend, and seven players are going to win big.

The weekend's festivities kick off at 7:00 p.m. on May 27 with the $55 buy-in $25,000 guaranteed DeepStack. This is followed up by the $16.50 buy-in $12,000 guaranteed Mini DeepStack, then the $33 buy-in $10,000 guaranteed Late DeepStack.

XL Spring Series takes a short break on May 28, so maybe you can put some study in while watching the UEFA Champions League final because May 29 has some cracking events.

The highlight of the weekend is, without doubt, the $120,000 Tune-Up, a $109 buy-in event that shuffles up and deals at 7:00 p.m. It is a two-day tournament that pauses when the nine-handed final table is reached. Navigate your way to that final table and you'll return at 7:00 p.m. on May 30 to fight it out for the title.

XL Spring #11 - $30,000 PKO 8-Max Final Table Results

"R3li_able" of Lithuania was the biggest XL Spring Series winner on May 26 after they were the last player standing in the $30,000 PKO 8-Max event. A field of 326 players paid $160 to enter, which created a $48,900 prize pool, far more than the advertised guaranteed amount.

All but one of the finalists collected four-figure sums when bounties were included. However, the night belonged to R3li_able who busted "Gat0rbl00d" of Canada in second place for an $8,401 haul, resigning the runner-up to a $5,156 consolation prize.

The $20,000 Mini PKO 8-Max event drew in 574 players who ensured the guarantee was beaten by $8,700.

The top four finishers got their hands on plenty of bounties, meaning they each won at least twice the amount of the fifth-place finisher. "FidisManibu8" finished fourth for $2,167 with "Tighterinho" banking $1,678 after their demise in third.

Heads-up pitted Romania's "Machidon7" and "Mucxito" of Azerbaijan. Victory went to the latter who reeled in a $4,167 score, leaving the former to bank a $3,641 payout.
