Pascal Hartmann is enjoying a purple patch of form and can seemingly do nothing wrong. Hartmann won the GGPoker High Rollers Blade Mulligan a couple of weeks ago for $95,537 and the same Sunday that he banked $63,109 in the partypoker High Roller Big Game and netted $71,015 in a Bounty Hunter Series event.

That incredible form continued on October 25 when Hartmann triumphed in another GGPoker event. He finished first from 99-entrants in the $10,300 buy-in BHS 339: Super MILLION$ Bounty Hunters event.

This victory, which came after battling with Michael Addamo and Isaac Haxton three-handed, weighed in at a massive $252,439 with bounties included. A cool $172,500 of that sum stemmed from eliminating foes! Nobody is going to be happy to find Hartmann at their table with him running this hot.

Amazingly, Hartmann also finished fourth in the $5,250 High Rollers Blade Mulligan for an additional $27,562.

��rabblerouser�� helped themselves to a similar-sized score by triumphing in the High Roller MILLION$ event. Some 490 players fought it out for a slice of the $1,500,000 prize pool but it was the aforementioned Canadian who secured the biggest prize.

First-place weighed in at a colossal $275,594 with the second and third place finishers each padding their bankrolls with six-figure prizes. Joao Vieira finished in third and saw his lifetime winnings swell by $129,391 while runner-up ��UknowWhoIam�� walked away with a $188,837 consolation prize.

There was plenty t shout about over at PokerStars too. Swedish legend Niklas ��Lena900�� Astedt came out on top of a 250-strong field in the $1,050 Sunday High Roller 8-Max and saw his initial investment grow to $48,071.

The final table was a star-studded affair, housing the likes of Adrian ��Amadi_017�� Mateos, Yuri ��theNERDguy�� Dzivielevski and Thomas ��MarToMchat�� Boivin.

Finally, the goings-on over at 888poker where the $100,000 Sunday Mega Deep missed its guarantee once again. A field of 901 left the tournament 99 players short of its guarantee, not that Argentina��s ��JoaquinRuiz�� cared because it meant they got to the $18,750 top prize sooner.

Second and third-place also won five-figure prizes. ��SleepingZace�� collected $13,500 for their runner-up finish while ��DollaMagn3t�� scooped $10,000.

The other result of note was Sweden��s ��Ilikepugs�� coming out on top in the $25,000 Sunday Challenge PKO event and winning a combined prize worth $5,358.
