He's never won a major live poker tournament. He's second to last in chips to start the final table. He's too quiet to become the leading poker ambassador. No player from Sweden has ever won this tournament. Those were all rumblings heard throughout the poker world about Martin Jacobson in the months leading up to the 2014 World Series of Poker Main Event final table. When it was all said and done, though, the man from Sweden proved to be the last player standing

Interesting,....I was watching that last night on TV wondering if it was actually live or taped...! It certainly had the feel of being live,...and now I guess I know for sure...!
Some not bad poker going on there,...I've seen better,...but with THAT kind of money involved,...and the title,....ANY poker is good poker...!
