This would definitely be a great table to watch so I hope it will be on the TV at some point. I am not sure who I would have put my money on at the start of the tournament but probably not on the winner even though he has some impressive winnings to his name.I like to see Antonio Esfandiari do well as he always entertains when he is at the table and Vanessa Selbst is very good and I like to see how the more experienced players cope when she is an aggressive mood.

Nice of him to win this tournament the field was hard and the last table that is the final table was tough we got at least one woman and i really hope Vanessa Selbst won it but happy with her performance so fun to watch people stare a woman playing poker lol . Anyway good final table not hitting your straight but that is poker and you cannot do anything about variance but just have a good bankroll and don't play games you cannot afford. Cheers i dream to play there one day but no discipline lol!

This may be defined as a micro field, but i am sure it gave David Willians a good idea of the difficulties that he will be facing on those next events he will be playing just with this prize.
