high five for montreal nationals for beating the berlin bears in a gruelling 11 games match and with the inaugural global poker league title taking home $100k as well. of course now they have to share it amongst 3 dudes, which makes the prizes only 30k which would be quite decent money, but to these pro's it's only a few buy-ins into other tourneys.

My deepest and most sincere congratulations to every member of the Montreal Nationals who won the 2016 Global Poker League Championship tournament. Their battle against the Berlin Bears was so intense. Well done!

Canada has a lot of good players so no surprise here! Good luck to them in the future.
