Sweden's Jerry "Perrymejsen" Ödeen was the biggest winner in Sunday tournaments at 888poker after taking down The Whale April 2 for $29,117.

The final table included some of online poker's top names including Conor “grandma1954” Beresford (fifth - $8,258) , Rocco "sephir0t" Palumbo (sixth - $6,407) and 888poker Ambassador Dominik "888Dominik" Nitsche (eighth - $3,560).

Ödeen, with over $2.7 million in online poker tournament cashes, is one of the many Swedes to be consistently near the top of the PocketFives Worldwide Online Poker Rankings where he is currently ranked in 18th place in the world and ninth in his home country.
