Its always nice to see someone win one of these big tournaments after qualifying through a satellite. These guys give hope to all the, so called, smaller players out there who dream of winning one of these

quite an impressive result for a warehouse worker, once again underlying the strange reality of professional poker players scene... not sure you can expect say the same warehouse worker to take a few tennis lesson just for fun and then go on to qualify for a grand slam and take it down... but in poker it's happening almost in every second tournament or such...

I will not belittle the victory of Sebastian Sorensson because it is a tremendous achievement of his, but the luck that has this boy is really incredible. I saw when I eliminated the Brazilian Akkari, first biting him much of the stack by connecting an Ace on the river and the following hands eliminating him with double pair with bigger kicker.

Always nice and interesting to read such news ..... an ordinary person ... a warehouse worker ... and such a good result .... although in the warehouse he probably had a lot of time to improve his skills)))) .. ... but of course he might now change his job to a professional player

I realize what you mean. You may be right or not. My opinion is that you are right. A new pokerstars lie. In this way they attract players to play in satellite tournaments. Is possible because correctness of this poker room has fallen lately in the eyes of online poker players. It is hard to believe that any amateur can win such a tournament.
