Tobias Schwecht won the $10,000 GGMillion$ Pot-Limit Omaha Bounty on GGPoker, part of the PLO Series, and took home $301,133, according to PokerNews.
The field was 80 entrants, building a prize pool of $1,010,000. Half went to the top eight finishers, while the other half was attached to players as progressive bounties.
Artur Martirosian was the first to cash, earning $31,679 with bounties included for eighth place. Cesar Garcia followed ($55,423), then Marcus Dieleman in sixth ($46,391), "TripleBarr" in fifth ($54,200) and Artisom Lasouskii in fourth ($76,949). Lasouskii was the only finalist who collected no bounty.
Eelis Parssinen finished third for $126,289. Schwecht then beat Ronnie Kaiser heads-up. Kaiser, who plays high-stakes PLO cash games and took the 2011 EPT Tallinn Main Event title, received $155,332.
Of Schwecht's $301,133, some $166,800 came from bounties, more than any other finalist took home in total. The PLO Series, with $20 million guaranteed, runs through November 17.
