Impressive. Very high prizes and the last hand was played with all in A diamond 6 vs. K T. Four diamonds came on the table with turn and river. It's strange for me to play an all in this way. 1st place won 1,459,000 and the second place 965,900, but to risk all stack with A6 and KT is too exaggerated, if we make a comparison between these not so good cardss and the sums of money. I did not expect for this series to have such a big tournaments. European poker is up.

It was a questionable hand I did not understand the allin pre-flop with A6 was very lucky and managed to win the hand that gave him the title, on the other hand, the call of Dvoress with KT is understandable because his stack got lucky on the flop but the river was very sick. However, losing a hand like that and receiving the prize of $ 965,900 is not bad at the end of a good tournament.

Great tournaments and big congratulations Bryn Kenney for win 1.46m, thats huge prizes but we need to say that buy in was too huge. Also congratulations to Daniel for second places, he play good but at end he didnt have lucky with flop and river. GG boys
One and a half million dollars is certainly a wonderful prize ... but considering that the entry fee was big enough, it was certainly a big risk ..... a tournament for people with big money who may have a chance And not have any problems ... in any case the winner is cool

Only eighty entries too. It was not that big of a magnitude of tourney as opposed to how it was advertised.

This is a game to win. For sure we have seen bigger prizes than this one, but can you say this is not a "respectable" one? It had rebuys, but there werent many players in, which made things a bit easier, to win the game, if you dont take in mind that probably all of them were professionals

I not very understand why ig poker names come to play big buyin tournament in place like Montenegro, not say it is bad place but it is very small country and no reason to play here just because organizers want to do this way. 79 players is of course not very much but many big names.

well you can be party of this series,but you must have lot of money on bank account,which I dont think that you have!buy in is 70000 $ and you dont have lot of players that have this kind of money for buy in!they have other tournaments whit smaller buy in,but again thats also in thousands of dollars!
