it was a great tournament, I saw the final table and it was great, great players, they knew how to play very well, but as always in every event there are the recreational players, but in general I liked it a lot, also a lot of money in every prize jump.

I didn't follow, but the main event is the star and the attraction is very big here, both from the players and from the viewers. The fans watch because it is important to learn from professional players.

there is the cream of the professional players and this thing is demonstrated in every year. They have very good tournaments, sometimes very hard, but that is, because of the capacity which is very high for very good players

It is not easy to win a poker tournament, there must be many more factors to be consecrated, and much more when you play in a tournament with more than 8 thousand players, it's crazy, this man could achieve it, you must always be constant to achieve things in this world.

it certainly takes a lot of effort and waiting to win many hands in search of the stack that leads to the final table. It is just as difficult there and these winners deserve all the appreciation. They are very good players

many professional players are relaxed through different lounges to maintain their level of concentration or patience. In this way they play for many hours without being too bothered by heavy hands.

The players who play these types of tournaments are mostly professionals, we know that not everyone has the possibility to play these tournaments, it is expensive, that's why they admire these professionals who play high tournaments.

the millions of dollars are hunted by the best players, but their struggle must be appreciated because it is not so easy if we follow the total course of a winner at a WSOP tournament. Winners make sacrifices and deserve appreciation.

That's right my friend, we see it very simple from our homes, but we know that it is not easy to play a live tournament, it demands a lot of sacrifice from when you travel to when you are at the tables playing, that's why these players are highly valued.

it is very difficult, it is very true, it is not easy to compete with more than 8000 thousand players and be champion, besides the registration fee is 10 thousand dollars, which is not cheap either, but this game is like that, that is why there is a respect for these players.

Of course it is nothing when they get to have more than 9 and 10 million dollars in earnings, but when they have less than 1 million comes to make an important sum, that's why some are always very careful with their bankroll.
