These guys must be playing a lot together for sure. Elky wasn’t the only one from the list at EPT Monte-Carlo, Jason Mercier was also there, but what I mean is that, although there are lots of online places where they can play “alone” and make points to the GPI, most of the action they take in live events must be always finding one another. “Oh, here you are again, so, ready for one more game?” “Hi, you know how our job is: we got to be where the action is!”

the dude can play.
it's pretty special to be top of the tournament rankings, cash games are a whole different story, the consistency to get to final tables in different fields in different countries is amazing really.

totally agree with that. not an easy task to have so much success in tournies as varience is much greater than in cash games. just goes to prove that poker is very much a game of skill. wish i was half as good as these guys or had half as much knowledge of poker as they do.

Totally true Bullet. I wish I was 1/2 as good as them as well. Who do you think will finish top? My money would be on Jason, I have been watching him quite a lot lately and he has pulled some great moves. I would love to play him, heads up and I wouldn't worry about going broke the experience would be worth it..............
