Nice victory, i bet Giacomo Fundaro is so happy for the $140k first prize as he is by receiving a $25k seat in the WPT Championship at Bellagio, which gives him the opportunity to get much more than the first place money prize, even if he doesn't get to win. It will all depend on the size of the field, but i am sure we can wait for the final 5 seats at the table all being rewarded with more than this.
gratz to him by me. Pretty big amount of cash he won, but still it is his first WPT vicotory, so it is better then some cash. Even more, that 25K ticket to WPT Campionship is kinda exclusive too.

I always hate it when I go all-in with some nice suited hand and get called by an offsuit acerag and then the freakin ace rag always wins. Same happens too often when I go all-in with AK or AQ as well. It´s disgusting.
