Foxen and Hutter First Big POWERFEST Winners

The 2021 POWERFEST on partypoker is underway and Alex Foxen and Barry Hutter are among the first big winners. The talented high stakes specialists each bagged six-figure prizes by winning $5,200 High Roller and $2,100 High Roller Opener respectively.

Hutter Becomes a POWERFEST Champion

41 of the 281 starters in the $2,100 POWERFEST #01 – High Roller Opener returned to the partypoker tables on April 11 to compete for a share of a $562,000 prize pool.

Third place and $52,295 went to Kevin Kai Ka, whose exit left Sami Kelopuro and Barry Hutter heads-up for the title. They didn’t settle for a deal, even though there was a $33,188 difference in the payouts. This meant Hutter walked away with $107,718 when he defeated his Finnish opponent, leaving Kelopuro to secure the $74,530 runner up prize.

Foxen Takes Down the High Roller Event

A field of 91 players bought into the $5,200 POWERFEST #03 – High Roller event and only 14 of them walked away with a slice of the $500,000 prize pool. Each of the finalists guaranteed themselves at least $20,094. Kristen Bicknell came in fourth, a finish worth $42,474, before David Peters‘ elimination in third, worth $60,049, left Foxen heads-up against Christoph Vogelsang.

Foxen busted Vogelsang in second place to secure the $137,317 top prize, leaving Vogelsang to reel in an $87,991 consolation prize.
