and if you look at the top 6 you will see that there is still a German and two Americans. Very interesting this tournament with a very big buy in. It is not easy to allow such a thing. These guys have done something nice. I think they will celebrate everyone in their own way but with sausages and beer. Maybe some Muslims can keep their warmth coming winter.

Four times in the money in this series ... someone is having a good run and plenty of luck And although he bubbled one, i doubt it was that a big deal for him, having in mind his other results. Almost 3 millions winnings

Yes like the information say to finish in the money in four tournaments out of five and in one only one place from money again is very good results with so many good players in all tournaments, this is high roller tournaments so not easy to beat players here.
