That account starts with Sunday Million winner stardust167, who picked up a first prize of $179,120 in a deal free final table a few hours ago. As Kristin Bihr wrote in her report, the final was a 'murderer's row of online poker success stories', not least in stardust167's heads up opponent Nicolau 'nicofellow' Villa-Lobos, the 2013 SCOOP 'Medium' Main Event winner. But then what line up would you expect in the biggest weekly online tournament?

Few people who have watched Dzmitry Urbanovich play had any doubts that when he reached the Main Event final table with the chip lead in Dublin that he was the absolute favourite. We thought it. BetStars thought it. Then Urbanovich himself proved it.

It was no easy ride for the 20 year old Pole (twenty!), who found himself the short stack with four players left. But despite a table appearance which rests some between ambivalence and irritation, he demonstrated a prowess that had surprised no one, least not after a past year spent winning almost everything, including those four titles at EPT11 Malta last year.

For poker fans it was a final table to remember. For we reporters watching court side it was one of those enjoyable treats. Read Howard Swains' full report of the final table, along with everything else from the Dublin festival.

That's all for now. Congratulations to all of this weekend's winners, whether online or in Dublin. As always you can keep in touch with us on Twitter: @PokerStarsBlog.
