Yes this is very strange to seen one guy winning tournament with more than 1000 players back to back for two years, this us so hard to do, it is so hard to win a single tournament with over 1000 players, but to repeat thus again next year is super hard and thus usn great result.

At that point it was a call with any Q i believe

Do you have to be above a certain age, to play on this one.

and this I call WSOP tournament!not such a big buy in as in last days,but still very big prize pool for all and men had to be better against 1719 other players!congratulations to him on another bracelet and very nice amount!
Very cool result !!! .... Of course it's very difficult to take the first place, but it's even harder to do it again in a year because there is psychological pressure .... this person is a real champion and maybe in a year he will make an incredible and again win this tournament ?

yeah kinda agree with mober on the fact that a seniors tournament is a bit sh1tty idea, since poker is poker and age doesn't make a lot of difference, well maybe players just enjoy themselves more when they play with similar age group?

To talk about this idea of a seniors only tournament, i can only say like a senior myself that it is nice to talk and play with same age people because you think similar things talk about dimilar problems and there is no situations like youngsters talk to youngsters amd old guys eith old guys
