well 13 millions of dollaros collected from online poker while still being at 32 is quite impressive achievement. I'm pretty sure most of us poor poker players would be over the moon to land even something like 1/100th of his winnings into our accounts

Yes like pochui say I too think that to win 13 millions of dollars from online poker is so big amount of money that i can't even think how much money it is. And also he is very young age, 32 years old and already make millions from job he likes, this is great life!
13 million is still a lot of money - for a young guy at the age of thirty-two - but it definitely does not make him extremely wealthy. Maybe this would have been the case a good hundred years ago, but todays world extrme wealth starts at nine zeroes IMO.

Still young player that has made a fortune from online tournaments. Yes it could have been easier for him winning that much in an earlier stage of his poker career, but it didnt happen. Was it like a complaint ? Cause many would trade their course of their poker careers for his

You have no chance to succeed in online poker if you are not a known player in live tournaments. DaCapo71 you are right. Pokerstars will not let you to make miliion dollars with online poker. I gave that name because at this moment there is no other poker room that has many players on huge amounts. Maybe in future with Party Poker will have major tournaments in 2018 of over 100 million guaranteed prizes. I hope they do not copy the amaya group(the stars group).
