It is very good that his dream has come true and for Jeremy Harkin from my point of view it matters more the bracelet than the amount of money. Many dream of bracelets, but only a few do that. The amount of money is not so impressive and i think he will play other tournaments as well in this series.

Congratulations to Jeremy on finally winning his first bracelet and a very nice first prize. I think he summed what it takes to win a tournament when he said that 'everything finally clicked'

This tournament you can say it had a normal buy in, for that 1.5k USD compared to some others. Not too many entrants though, 446 of them, making the prize for the first position a little less than 130k Excellent for a payday though

dealers choice 6 handed, ok this sounds like something new I have never tried to play. 1,500 dollaros buyin looks decent for a world series of poker event, fact that only 446 dudes and dudettes registered surely doesn't look amazing when we're used to online tourneys with 10k entrants

Massive well done to Jeremy Harkin, who topped a field of 406 players to win the $1,500 buy-in Dealers Choice 6-Handed tournament. A $129,882 first place prize. That is an enormous return on his $1,500 investment.

Yes Godoy, the americans are very good in this texas holddem poker because they invented this game. They had time to play, watch on TV for professional players skills or the internet and they read strategy about this. Americans if they were allowed to play online poker again, would win many final tables in the tournaments of poker rooms, but also many money at cash tables.
