elton who? oh wait no pros allowed, only regular mortals with lots of trailing zeros in their bank accounts allowed. too bad for la liberte dude that his plan to kick out pros and dominate the tables didn't go to plan, ah well if i somehow managed to cut on my spending on booze and saved a bit, i would've joined these no pros and showed em how poker should be really played.

I havent heard of this one before. Did a google search to see how much he is worth, but i cant find any results. But if you can afford paying 1m, buy in to play a poker tournament, and win nothing at the end of it, Then you have enough.

They sure made one lucky triad-member a very happy man this weekend. If I was him probably would not travel home at all, eleven millions could make your life sweet in literally any other country.
