Congrats! Thinking now is it worth to look at the final table or not lol. I was hoping Mizrachi would close it down as hes about the only well known name from the list.

Congrats to my fellow Quebecer Jonathan Duhamel! 23 and on top of the world. I hope he does better than Joe Cada, I saw Joe play on Pokerstars The Big Game show - not too impressive :-/

Of course I have to say '' congratulations, you played best poker at table '' and it's true. But I'm just a bit disappointed for Filippo. Anyway I had chance to watch final table live, thanks to an italian monothematic channel ( which I can't say name of ).

Duhamel was really showed really good performance on the final table. I was a bit disappointed by the Racener's HU play - only one raise from button in 43 hands?

And when we take taxes into account, he won about 4,xxx million only Sad 48% of earnings taxed...Crazy
 xdonkingx12/11/2010 00:38:48 GMT
wow, simply amazing, winning the biggest touneament of the year and shipping 8 millions... Smile

with 8 millions on the pocket, i think its time to never play poker again, buy an paradise island in caribe and taste all that money Smile
 Pseudo1821/11/2010 16:43:25 GMT
Incredible cash! I can not wait when I can watch it on youtube! Big Smile I look for that and I feel jealous...
