Very well played, everyone, especially to those who managed to finish in the top 3 among the field of 7,190 entrants. Hats off to Jason Dewitt and Garrett Greer for grabbing one million dollars or more, and to Lisa Meredith for finishing third, earning her a half million dollars.

Many times the 2 7 winning combination , you just have to negotiate when , poker is a game where you need a lot of luck so that says a man , you can not win if you do not have good cards , if you guess lucky day then can you be millionaire
