I could say this a typical 'rags to riches' story but this guy was already a successful player on his own beside being a sponsored one (judging by his coat). So it's not like that €33 satellite beginning was a lucky scenario, this guy can play legit.

I would say that it's very unlikely that someone with no skill what so ever get through a satellite and then cash in big in the main event, but I suppose it's possible. Anyway, my point is that this guy most likely has some good skills to be able to do this, nothing but luck wouldn't be as likely of a scenario.

This player from Romania is a good one because he has the total live earnings of $ 221,851. He didn't play for the first time and he knows this game to a certain extent. It's not easy to win a tournament how is London main event. Congratulations to the winner.

What annoys me sometimes is the weasel in which a winner enjoys. They make certain gestures of the face and here it seems a little embarrassing. I understand you are glad that you have won a pretty good tournament but you have to know how to be happy.

Well, what can you say here. If you are lucky, you are From a 33 USD ticket he managed to win 100k. That is what you call a return for your investment And now of course, he is going to chase even more prizes, since he can buy in to lots of tournaments, even directly
