Benyamine and Juanda are also big losers this month. But when some guys win others have to lose.

From the Fins only Lars Luzak is not running well this month

I don't even manage to wonder how can you win so much money.
These players are unbelieveble..
But, luckily, I won't ever play against them.... not to be the loser one.

1,5 million Dollar Dollar Dollar Dollar Dollar Dollar
one day I hope to make that kind of money, I just wonder how you can lose more than a million in one month Shock I mean that's a clear sign you should take a looooooong vacation.

The question is that they have won the first million or they already had a few million. And playin high stakes is just fun for them.
 Buhl3r22/11/2008 01:00:27 GMT
yeh. If ou play big, you can win more... that's the way to go

Yep. But not only for the way he plays. Ziigs table talk is what makes him really famous. Tony G or Hellmuth are nothing against this Big Smile

They are too simply very serious players when it comes to High Stakes poker games, very aggressive, bluffing very well & really knows how to make people pay like Antonius always do Worship
