Also congratulations for winning the space of two tournaments, you're right to win two in such a short time, you have to have skill and a little luck, but without it, unless you can not win.

Congratulations to the brazilian girl, Renata Teixeira, second place. If I`m not mistaken she`s the first woman to win a big prize in a live tournament in latin america.

nice prize could have been bigger if it wasnt for the deal .. the last four made i think Nacho ( cool name by the way ) was the most happy with the out-come i mean finishing fourth and taking 100K 14K better than 3rd place and only 13K away from 2nd place prize i might find this bad move from the other three but i believe if i was on the same spot i would maybe take the deal .. lot of money

Not sure how the top four players decided on the deal but I'll have to look into the details as it looks strange.Is there a limit on how many players can decide to deal?Could the whole final table deal? A final table deal is never a great end to a tournament for neutrals but very understandable for the players.

Congratulations for the player, is the first thing. Second for what i read from klash23, yes the deal is not a interesting thing to outside people see, but for this kind of players all that matter is the title and the name one the top. Third is achivement on 6 months of playing and get the 2 title of LAPT, is a good thing, and for what i see is moe easily win titles in other tournaments comparate with the EPT, and yes is frequently players play some of the tour. Just a opinion and cue.
