Down to 18 players already?That was very quick.Steve O'Dwyer always seems to do very well in these high rollers and Mike McDonald is capable of winning any tournament so it will be an exciting end to the tournament.

This tournament has has a very big entry considering the the price of the buy in, showing that the poker scene is still very healthy. Steve O'Dwyer would be my pick to win

It is all over and the winner was the American David Peters,not someone I have seen or heard about but he has been around for a very long time and won $5million in live tournaments.Well done for a good win.
The €597,000 first-place prize and a luxurious SLYDE watch are both a desirable product to have it in the end, but what is with this current trend giving away watches and stuff? Do these clock companies really need these sponsor deals at all? It's not like every other pro isn't going to pawn theirs when they will be in need of some quick dough.
