Anyone else happen to notice who won the seat in Sunday's $640 buyin qualifier for the OnyxCup ($100K entry)? Yup.. it was Sorel Mizzi. There were 124 entrants, 1st place won $100K(+5k) entry. {over $30,000 overlay in this satellite!).
So I guess it won't just be a field full of sponsored FTP pros... especially seeing as there's now one 'former FTP pro' who won a satellite for it.
I read something about the final hand where Sorel (Imper1um) made what 'appeared' to be a preflop misclick (adding an additional 'zero' to the end of their bet... a trick I've seen some other pros do in the past (ie. ShaunDeeb but was during postflop play)).. raising up ~1/3 stack pre, (instead of 2.1bb) villain (or perhaps 'hero' in this hand, lol)... fell for it & reraised allin with A7o.. & got called by stronger Ax & lost. (< something like that anyways).
