everything starts from the bottom, and with hard work and study in poker, you can get far, it is not easy, you have to sacrifice many things, that's why these players have come very far in this sport, and we can all make it if we propose.

Of course it is, this is crazy, playing those amounts of money is from another planet, you have to be sure to have great ability in this game to play high, these players have a lot of experience, which they have obtained for many years.

These players are used to play with large amounts of money, that's why they have no nerves at all, we always see it in live tournaments and they are super relaxed, their professionalism is very noticeable.

That's right my friend, playing a poker tournament with 100k entry for mere mortals is crazy, we would never do it, but for them it is bread and butter, they are used to play those amounts, they are not afraid of anything, that's why they are great players.

I know players who have won a lot of money in poker and do not play as high as others, but it is a question of whether you feel prepared to play a tournament of that magnitude.

I know one who won over $ 50,000 in poker a few years ago, but of course there are many who win, you don't necessarily have to win only famous players. Bracelets were also won by lesser known players

That's the most beautiful thing about poker, that anyone can win a tournament, we all have the opportunity to make it happen, but always with study and work you can achieve things, there are many stories of players who won a lot of money with little.

as long as he is a very good player we cannot say that he is wrong with something. The bracelets prove this and he knows what he is doing. Money is needed for him and he knows how to fight for them.

it is normal to be a great player when he wins big prizes and bracelets. Many people play poker and have money, but if they lose and do not win bracelets then they are not such great players. Congratulations to this champion anyway.
