Hopefully kiwi gets a little lucky here. Not really, usually when you are on last foot, you can go all-in with mediocre hand but someone who will call you will not be a donkey in these kind of tournamants. Maybe you are talking about non-8mil dollars event. | ||

Hes already won more than a lot of pros have won in prize money. he prob wanted a break from poker. It's a tough way to make an easy living, trust me, you go through a ton of downswings you never thought were possible.. kiwi is prob no stranger to this hard fact of poker | ||

It's hard to fathom for most people but close to mincashing after getting to day 4 in the ME is a pretty awful feeling. Kiwi in all likelihood doesn't have all his own action and will also (like any good tournament player) not give a flying shit about payout rises unless he's super short and there's some weird ICM consideration, otherwise he'll be taking big risks with no qualms if it means having a better chance at winning the whole thing. | ||

Yeah SC2 is very popular with a lot of poker players. Is Kiwi backed? Did he sell action? Sat in? Direct buy? Anyone know? | ||
