This week's $1K tournaments were a bit down thanks to all of the action going down at the PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) events. In fact, only Full Tilt was able to avoid an overlay this week, as the other two tournaments failed to reach their guarantees.
At Full Tilt, Jeremiah "Believer8219" Vinsant came out on top for a score of $87,250. Unknown player I'am_Sound took down the Super Tuesday on PokerStars for $68,250, and MACGOWAN1957 bested reigining Card Player Online Player of the Year Alex "AJKHOOSIER1" Kamberis at Absolute Poker for $39,750.
