7 South Americans, 3 Europeans and 2 North Americans shared the prizes of this High Roller Finals tournament and i guess it wasn't such an easy game. Live poker is a phenomenon that has grown in some countries and this is a good thing beause many of us can participate in some games in our countries, but through satellites of course.

this prize are not so big,if you look over 10 K buy in,but when you see that there were only 84 players,you cant expect much!so to to win almost 20 times that you invested,istn bad for one day of play!this colombian players will remember it for sure!you dont see very often so many south americans with big wins,no matter that tournament is on uruguay!

But is significant that this tournament had so many South americans players (and winners), and a little portion of european and north americans. Somebody might think that with that buy-in, the airplane cost should be lowest. But it seems like a very important thing The poker´s game and the skills are growing so fast in South america, but this list of winners does not reflect reality

I don't know what to say but North Americans don't think they came in large numbers here because maybe they compare Uruguay with Venezuela... Anything is possible here because there are many talented players at poker and they are the big winners.

Farid Jattin probably is a very good online poker player and here he has shown that he can win live. His skills are strong and because of that he made a lot of money. The strategy is far too difficult to learn, but he had time to learn it. What major tournaments or series do you have in Argentina my friend? There is something close to you and a poker room where are satellites for that?
