Many congratulations to Sheraz Nasir on winning this event and the first prize of over a quarter of a million. Lu Zhang must be disappointed at not winning but can look back with a lot of pride on her tournament

I do not know anything about this guy Nasir but he has had a few wins before though not as high as the quarter million he won on this one but congratz.I would have liked to see a woman manage to win this and have to say that I am surprised that a woman has never won an open WPT event.
Lu Zhang - now that is an unmistakably canadian sounding name if I guess it right. If I imagine her picture I see a Paul Bunyan type character holding two cards under a ton of snow near a logjam in the right side of the frozen river.
