Melanie Weisner leads the way as the final 32 1.5K NLH Bounty players come back to a Sunday Shootout!

That's right, after a day full of bounties, the final four tables of eight players will turn into shootout tables with each table's winner meeting up in the final four!


Weisner (2011 PTPR Rank: 1156th) had some success on the circuit in 2011 but was never able to secure a major score.

Aussie veteran Jamie Pickering (2011 PTPR Rank: NR) is second in chips - about 50K behind Weisner.

Harry Demetriou (2011 PTPR Rank: NR), Oliver Speidel (2011 PTPR Rank: 346th), Eric Crain (2011 PTPR Rank: 680th) and James Obst (2011 PTPR Rank: NR) are a few other notable players still alive in the event.
