The XL Winter Series exploded into action at 888poker over the weekend and one of 888poker's ambassadors almost came away with a victory on the opening night. Aaron "abarone86" Barone was one of 39 entries in the $1,050 Super High Roller Special. When the dust settled, Barone had fallen at the final hurdle and banked $8,920, narrowly missing out on glory.
Only seven of the field received a return on their initial investment, with Mexico's "NUBIER" reaching the eight-handed final table but busting in eighth place, popping the money bubble.
That elimination opened the floodgates with "Kenneth134" falling in seventh for $2,020 and "okagawa1" of Brazil bowing out in sixth for $2,320.
Fifth place and $3,000 went to German "pactamah23" before "luck4chucky," one of three Canadians at the final table, saw their deep run end in fourth place, a finish worth $4,000.
The Super High Roller special progressed to the heads-up battle once 888poker regular "sheshhhhhhhhhh" fell by the wayside in third. That finish resulted in $6,000 landing in the Montenegrin's account.
Barone locked horns and butted heads with fellow Canadian "Zebest7r" for the title and the tournament's five-figure top prize. Unlike in Madrid where Ian Simpson won the first 888poker LIVE event of 2025, Barone had to make do with a runner-up finish at the virtual felt. Barone banked $8,920 for his impressive display, leaving "Zebest7r" to scoop the $13,680 first-place prize and the title of champion.

$150K Weekend Mystery Starter is "Neleop10"'s to Lose
The $109 buy-in, $150,000 guaranteed Weekend Mystery Starter played down to its final table on January 20, and one player stands head and shoulders above the rest. Brazilian "Neleop10" finished Day 2 with 5,391,893 chips in their stack, the equivalent of 108 big blinds. Their nearest rival, "Hodor83" of the United Kingdom, has 34 big blinds when play resumes under the watchful eyes of the 888poker Twitch channel on January 21.
Nothing is guaranteed in poker, especially not in a tournament format, but everything points to "Neleop10" helping themselves to the $11,610 top prize and a glut of mystery bounty payments.
