Apparently four cashes at the 2007 World Series of Poker for a total of $81,138 was not enough for online poker pro Jon Turner. He was on Bodog.com yesterday under his online handle "PearlJammer" looking to add to that total. He succeeded in doing so by winning $25,000 for a first place finish in the Bodog Sunday $100k Guaranteed online poker tournament.

"PearlJammer", obviously more than just a casual Pearl Jam fan, battled through the 887-entrant field to start the final table second in chips. After some ups and downs including being short-stacked and having to push in a couple of times to double-up, he entered the heads-up battle against "Henge" at a two to one deficit. Showing why he is a feared online opponent, "PearlJammer" quickly erased that deficit to emerge victorious.

Here are the full final table places and payouts:

1) Jon “PearlJammer” Turner - $25,000
2) Henge - $14,000
3) mmm10167 - $9,000
