This league’s first prize should be a dream, with a $125k buy-in, although they aren’t many, it must be enough to animate the race for the first place in years biggest winnings ranking. Also yesterday I received a letter from Partypoker, but it wasn’t an invitation for this event. They still want me playing other levels, he he! Mobsters can now find me during weekends at Partypoker also, I will give it another try to see if I can put my PP account with some profit, hope I do!

ah well he probably is sponsored to play anyway, too big of a name to ask to put the buy in from his own account i think, overall lineup for the tournament looks pretty impressive, but hey it's poker so we can expect anything i guess, one thing i would put a bet on is antonius not winning the tournament

I hope not, i mean PA was not direct involved in the full tilt poker deal but he definately had some inside info, after the site was shut down he recognized in an interview that the only had 100 dollars left in his ftp account.
Still, this event should be interesting to watch considering the great line-up.
