David Lichentin France PokerStars qualifier765000
That is what we really should have a look at. it shows that people really have a spot to make it. I mean a friend of me was once really close to qualifier for the PCA (only his Queens loosing against KQ destroyed that dream) and it shows that even as a qualifier you can make it to the money.
So guys... There will come the time were some of us will qualify for a big live tournament and even the mincash would be more than great We will do it *dreaming off*

Joe Cada is really one of the best live poker players i know. He is also specialized on large tournaments. But as you all know on this type of tournaments and especially in the final stages like now it's almost impossible to know who will make it to the final table. At the beginning of the tournament the large favourite was Viktor "Isildur1" Blom but for those that know Viktor's background should have knowed that he is actually a really good cash games player and not a tournament player although he won some tournaments on pokerstars. I also would like to state that you also need to have some luck on this type of tournamets, considering it's a tournament that doesn't allow rebuys. I hope that the tournament will be won by a pokerstars pro in the end.
