What an incredible way to win the title. He was down to three big blinds and eventually came through to win the three hundred thousand first prize. Congratulations to him

I think it has happened to most of us when we are down to virtually nothing and after a couple of lucky hands we are back in the game,usually most of us are not playing for 300k though!
Okay, it's a pretty good story winning some title with an initial 3 BBs for a start, but seeing this rainbow table where almost all the participants were coming from some interesting country is more funny to me. I mean the guys from Lebanon and Argentina probably saw a thing or two in their life, probably finishing a high roller live tourey on the final table isn't all that big of a deal for them.
