TOP250 October: A Very Close Win
The winner of the TOP250 promotion for the month of October has been determined - and it was very close. Less than 1,000 StrategyPoints separated the winner DuneBuggy from his pursuer RiF!
DuneBuggy remained true to his reputation and secured $10,000 in prize money once again. It is said that DuneBuggy only tries to get first place every other month. After his wins in April,
June and August, he has now won the TOP250 promotion for the fourth time.
However, it was extremely close, as his biggest opponent and two-time TOP250 winner RiF was following hard on his heels: Only 846 StrategyPoints separated him from DuneBuggy.
DrAction
was also around. For the second time in a row, he finished in third place, crossing the 100,000 StrategyPoints mark by a wide margin, as did both DuneBuggy and RiF.
The mysterious garandou
also survived in fifth position and can look forward to $3,000 in prize money. Last but not least, a member from the Russian community is also present: DrunkMaster finished in sixth place and receives $3,000 like garandou.
We regret the delay of the publication of the final result of the TOP250 promotion for October. As Mansion Poker still had to work out some remaining corrections
in their database for the last few weeks, we are only now able to present a reliable final result.
Other update delays of the past were caused by a lack of data from a few platforms as well. However, we will now carry out our regular updates, regardless of these circumstances.
At Unibet Poker and Betfair, we still lack one day from each for the October ranking. However, we have received assurances that this will not have any effects on the overall ranking.
We always try to acquire the missing data as quickly as possible,
however there are problems at times on the side of the poker
platforms. Of course, we will notify you in the future about gaps in the ranking updates if necessary.
From January to November, we will have given away over one million dollars in bonuses
to our top players. Exactly $1,040,000! The top finisher of
this month will, as usual, receive a $10,000 bonus. We wish every
PokerStrategist good luck and a successful November!
In the current Olympics Year 2008 Medals Table, DuneBuggy still remains in the lead. On the other hand, RiF has now managed to finish in each position of the TOP 3:
