What the hell??? Almost 2.5k entries at a thousand bucks per player yet the prizepool is less than 1.5 million... It's really not my job to complain about the rake but what the hell??? Somebody is taking away a lot of money and not the players that is for sure.

This man won in this tournament after returning from a chip. This is a real miracle and i did not imagine like a player, may return in a live game with one chips. It's fantastic and i congratulate him for this thing. Congratulations for the other players who had a good profit.
tournaments with Bounty are quite interesting tournaments .... for every killed player you get money and accordingly the prize for your knocking out grows .... I played a little tournament in the Bounty .... But it was quite interesting .... the most interesting tournament This is when I played at PartyPoker and won $ 150 bounty .... did not reach the prizes a bit ... otherwise it would be another $ 300

It's nice with reward for eliminations but this man has achieved a real performance here. He had a good luck and the other players failed to eliminate it, even if he remain with only one chips. These players could have benefited from his reward but was not the case.

Bounty games are always nice to play, especially when you reach deep in the money.. The player that won the tournament, you can say he is low in the money list for live winnings, but you never know. And at the end a win is a win, plus you cans say it has a bit more value, since it is a wsop tournament
I think this is the first player from South Korea who could win a bracelet ... and it's very cool that the geography of poker is expanding more and more ... and there are more and more people who are passionate about this beautiful game .... Of course there are some countries in which Forbidden to play poker .... I think it's terrible .... I hope that someday the bans will be removed and people will be able to do what they like

I remember the good times when Pokerstars had very good software. I came back in two sit and go games from 13 to 15 chips and i won both games. This is impressive and i saved the pictures. I did not think it could happen in a live game either but the fate is the fate.
