Hi again guys. Im sure you'll think im obsessionnal with this tournament and his winners... i mean the pokerstar world record tournament and his finalists (here ill speak of the 2nd once again : Bommel222).
After the fantastic heads up he made vs Oskar69 (losing by call all-in with 86 preflop as you might have seen in my previous poll), he made even better !
The tournament finished the 28 december, so Bommel get his 30K$ the 28 december ! congrats man ! Then he manages to go from 30K to 0 ... the same day... yes he made it in 1 day !
When i saw that, i was schoked. But well, maybe that he just don't care, who knows...
Thats some great bankroll management dont you think ? All you have to do is to play NL25/50$ and NL200/400$ and there come the nice 0$
PS : i Promess, i stop thread about this tournament and his winners now

indeed... i guess we all think : "Man, if u just dont care of those 30K, why didn't you transfer me your bankroll?".... Or i dont know, he might have given this to the red cross that would have been a "hero to zero to hero" !

The tourney buy-in was just $1. So at the end of the day, all he has lost was one buck. I guess we all have lost far more in one days play.
Very interesting point of view, but well generally, when you make a big win, you dont lose it all the same day... But well, i like this way of thinking nice answer

This is what happens when a retarded wins a big tournament. He thinks to be the best player in the world and feels invincible. But the truth is: he won a lottery, hit 4 numbers in a row on roulette,... so this result was expected. He wanted to multiply his winnings but luck got away, and he needed it again.

that is completely illogical, it's like those people who go on gameshows like "Deal or No deal" and make stupid risks because they say "I came with nothing, so what the hell".. It's an irrational argument/justification.
IMO the guy lost close to $30K. Which he did. Not $1. Saying he lost a buck is like saying someone who started with $50 and built their roll to $200K over 2 years and then lose it all in one day only lost $50 not $200K because thats what they started with. What utter bs. The guy had close to $30K and then he lost it.
Maybe his wife/girlfriend was pissed, hacked his account and blew it all for blowing her off during the tourny. At least that could be a reasonable excuse for losing that much in one day.

Oh my God. This is just so much worse than Isildur, on so many levels. This guy sure did have tons of things were those 30k could have gone to a good use, and he just blows them away! Goes to show how stupid people can be! And yes, it probably was his whole BR
