Belarusian poker superstar Mikita Badziakouski is no stranger to million dollar paydays. On Tuesday, Badziakouski added another one after taking down a GGPoker Spring Festival for a $1.1 million score against some of the top high roller regulars in the world.

Over the course of two days, Badziakouski topped the 208-entry field in Event #75-H ($25,500 Sunday Five Million) to win $1,105,678.72. Just five days after picking up $339,484.21 for winning Event #58-H ($10,300 Thursday Thriller Bounty), ‘CrossfireX‘ added $829,142.29 to their bankroll for finishing one spot behind Badziakouski. Third place finisher ‘Nator‘ ended up earning $621,768.89.

The top bounty hunter in Event #77-H ($525 Bounty Hunters HR SE) was ‘PUYA‘ and that earned them $51,978.68. Their last victim was ‘minipro‘ and that player had to settle for $20,752.80 while Simon Lofberg actually picked up a slightly bigger score, banking $24,921.77 as the third place finisher.

Finland’s Samuli Sipila took down Event #78-H ($2,100 PLO-NL Bounty) by beating former #1-ranked Andras Nemeth. Sipila earned $62,192.88 along with the title while Nemeth walked away with $38,916.14 for his efforts. Third place finisher ‘schmalimero93‘ earned $19,247.75.

The last of the High level buy-in events to play down to a winner on Monday was Event #80-H ($525 6-Max). ‘DameDolla‘ navigated through the 635-entry field to take the title and a $44,171.48 score. Runner-up ‘Moist‘ earned just a little bit more, banking $45,301.17 while ‘PUYA’ earned their second podium finish of the night and won $45,301.17
