Congratulations to Vitaly Lunkin, he is a good player. Pokerstars live tournaments already are in Russia, i am glad to ear that. But in Russia with so many millionairy people i thought the prizepool would reach a bigger amount! lol just kidding!
I have been present during the tournament. And must say Vitaly played vary good poker. It's a pyte Ivan Demidov finished at sixth place. He had two vary nasty bad beats at the final table.
