Heard about that 5th place finisher in some twitch stream yesterday ... Also looks like Käsper's 317K €€€ is third best result which someone from our country has ever won in any LIVE-event ...

Good for him! Now if only one of our CC members pulls off something like this.

this is cool. And I won two satellites and left the game a couple of steps before the $530 ticket😂 It would be a sensation if such a small fish like me got into such a tournament and gave battle to the monsters.

This boy is an example to follow for Romanian players, especially the young ones.

I feel like this is the real highlight number:
220,654% ROI

I wonder how that compares to Espen Jorstad's ROI after satting into the main last year.

 

[ScoobyNL]

i like it when a qualifier is winning

 

[skaterick]

you need to win lots of flips to pull off something like that !

 

[moularaki]

from qualifier to winning an EPT
That's a dream for every poker player
