only heard of ole schemion from the final table, also greenwood sound solid for no poker related reason whatsoever. yeah dudes have some spare cash to spend on a $100K buy-in, i guess i would better spend it on weed, hookers and vodka but hey some better like to shell out 100k and experience the joy of getting owned with AA's vs 36off.

Many congratulations to Bryn Kenney on winning the €100k buy-in high roller event! And congratulations to both Bryn Kenney and a runner-up finisher Viacheslav Buldygin for scooping a seven-figure payday. I will be sure to watch a replay of the tournament when it becomes available online.

Thats a nice payroll for a three days work. If you can says they were working of course Almost 2 millions from 100k, is what you call a good investment. A risky one, but one worth taking. The rest of the prizes were also good.
The winnings are certainly serious and big, but for those players who can afford to pay a 100000 contribution fee and this is not their last money so for them it was a normal tournament ..... for three days to increase the investment by 17 times for the winner it's certainly cool
