<br />
1. JC Tran - 38,000,000<br />

A milestone very special, which allowed the winner - microulis69, receiving $ 103.800 playing on a table only $ 0.02 / $ 0.05 NLHE.<br />
<br />
It was known that the winner of the hand 100 billion, would await a prize of $ 100,000 minimum, whatever the level he was playing. But receiving $ 100,000 playing at a table of $ 0.02 / $ 0.05 NLHE, must seem like a dream.<br />

It's been over a month since it opened the first and so far only poker room for real money, the new regulated market of the state of Nevada. On April 30, he opened the doors to Ultimate Poker room that featured Antonio Esfandiari as the great ambassador. Esfandiari now has over 8 teammates.<br />
<br />
With the World Series of Poker to run at full throttle, the Ultimate Poker does not want to waste the opportunity, being currently the only company allowed to host the online tables, all players present in Las Vegas.<br />
<br />
Besides Esfandiari, the room created by the Brothers Fertitta (UFC owners), also hired Gavin Griffin, Randy Dorfman, Dan O'Brien, Phil Collins, Jason Somerville, William Reynolds, Lauren Kling and Jonathon Little. Another big name playing with the logo Ultimate Poker is Terrence Chan, but Terrence is much more than a sponsored player, Chan works for the room.<br />
<br />
The Ultimate Poker has developed its own software, and so it is normal to present various aspects to improve, and even correct to best please the players. And in recent weeks the room has done it himself, making several adjustments to its software, while asking players to express their opinions and tips on 2 +2.<br />
<br />
It was April 30 that the room opened its doors, and even a month later he was celebrating his hand 2 million. At that time, Antonio Esfandiari was invited to go to the local channel Fox to speak as an ambassador of Ultimate Poker. Another player who will certainly bring a lot of attention is the Ultimate Poker Jason Somerville.<br />

It's not yet a certainty, but believing in the words of Daniel Negreanu, The Full Tilt Poker Professional should not travel to Las Vegas to play in the World Series of Poker 2013. Viktor Blom should stay home, enjoying the games available in the room that sponsors him.<br />
<br />
Negreanu's revelation was made in a conversation via Twitter with Dan Fleyshman and Ashton Griffin, being 3 to discuss their teams for the Fantasy League. The Kid Poker Team PokerStars Pro said:<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkrEBvKeBDWCuSUpMwGu03DoZFuKYmUfdJIsgTg1QDYzVZOxiL4nKHpnTgrxb9_JewesCyKfBJn7fvZVOOleD_nnrefsLumKaxOJ6BUKovj6n8nU2KkY9b-ycRe3xUSI7S4OUoIF55c00N/s1600/negreanu-twitter-isildur1.png" imageanchor="1" ><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkrEBvKeBDWCuSUpMwGu03DoZFuKYmUfdJIsgTg1QDYzVZOxiL4nKHpnTgrxb9_JewesCyKfBJn7fvZVOOleD_nnrefsLumKaxOJ6BUKovj6n8nU2KkY9b-ycRe3xUSI7S4OUoIF55c00N/s320/negreanu-twitter-isildur1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Besides Isildur1, Negreanu also doubted that Gus Hansen, Tom Dwan and Patrik Antonius are seen through the halls of the Rio All-Suites Hotel & Casino. It is not difficult to predict that in addition to the tables of Full Tilt Poker, these players spend a few days in Macau, for between 5 and June 7 play will be the Guangdong Asia Millions tournament HK $ 1 million (€ 99,324).<br />

The tournament only kicks off on June 5, but one of the organization's objectives has been achieved. The Millions Guangdong Asia is already the Super High Roller with the largest field ever, with 70 players registered at this time. With a buy-in of HK $ 1 million (€ 99,324), the prize pool is close to € 7 million.<br />
<br />
Although the World Series of Poker had already begun, the top pros do not want to waste the opportunity to compete at one of the tournaments of the year. With 70 players already included, the prize pool is close to € 7 million, and that's not counting that each player can make two rebuys, and by 5 June still can sign more players.<br />
<br />
The Asia Ltd Guangdong Millions (GDAM) will be played between 5 and June 7 in the room PokerStars Live, the project City of Dreams Macau.<br />

The Team PokerStars Pro has only two World Series of Poker bracelets to his credit, but is confident that this summer will leave Las Vegas with another piece of jewelery in the bag. Trust is so accepting bets, proposing to pay triple the amount wagered.<br />
<br />
The first WSOP bracelet Mercier was conquered in the 2009 WSOP. Event # 5 of the 2009 WSOP was a $ 1,500 Pot Limit Omaha event, attended by 808 players, and has paid a first prize of $ 237.415.<br />
<br />
The second bracelet was achieved two years later, in 2013. Again in Pot Limit Omaha tournament, this time the action took place on tables only 6 places in the $ 5,000 that had 507 participants. After beating Hans Winzeler heads up, Mercier received $ 619.575.<br />
<br />
Now interestingly and after another period of two years, Mercier feels confident in new victory. To motivate accept bets and offers odds of 3:1. Mercier also accepts bets hit as any other player, with odds "small". Odds that are not valid for all opponents:<br />

The increasingly close to the International Stadiums Poker Tour Wembley, a new partner has been announced - the Austrian company Red Bull. The company that gives wings to more radical sports, bet this time in poker, a tournament that will be very peculiar, the first poker tournament played on the lawn of a mythical stadium.<br />
<br />
In London, the ISPT Wembley still seems far away, since by now the attention is focused on the Champions League Final. This game will put face to face the top two Bundesliga - Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund and is scheduled to start at 19:45 the next Saturday, May 25.<br />
<br />
When you finish the game and consequent celebration of the winners, the staff of the stadium will practically fly, to prepare everything to welcome the first edition of ISPT. And when it comes to flying, nothing better than a brand that gives us wings.<br />
<br />
For participants of the ISPT Wembley, Red Bull promises some surprises, and of course, being the official drink during the tournament.<br />
<br />

PokerStars has introduced a new measure to prevent players at a table from sitting out until a recreational player sits. PokerStars representative Steve Day posted broad details of the new policy on 2+2 forum.<br />
<br />
If the dealing at a table stops because players have sat out, the table will be closed after a predefined delay, regardless of the number of players still sat down.<br />
<br />
Players who start a table but sit out while they wait for weak players to join will no longer be able to do so. Tables where no cards are being dealt will be removed from the lobby.<br />
<br />
For the purpose of starting new games, a single table of each type will be allowed to remain open where only one player is seated. If new players join that table and dealing does not start after a preset time, the table will be closed.<br />
<br />
This policy is known as a “King of the Hill” solution because it forces active players to play against each other until games run or only one player is left waiting. The policy has been introduced to protect recreational players and end the common strategy of regulars refusing to play each other and simply waiting for weak players to turn up.<br />
<br />
Changes made to Selected Games and Stakes Only<br />
<br />
The new policy only applies to 6-Max and Full Ring No Limit Hold´em, Flop Limit Hold´em and Pot Limit Omaha tables with blinds at $1.00/$2.00 and above. At the moment the changes will not apply to Heads Up tables or to the PokerStars sites in France, Italy and Spain.<br />
<br />
The policy change follows the April PokerStars meeting between players and management that took place on the Isle of Man. These meetings had been scheduled on a regular basis so that PokerStars can “cut out the middle man” and management can hear directly from players rather than feedback being filtered through marketing and PR.<br />

Shaun Deeb is now leading the overall 2013 SCOOP Player of the Series leaderboard. Deeb has already cashed over $130,000 from the 2013 SCOOP tournaments he has played and made it to four final tables.<br />
<br />
Deeb is the first person in SCOOP history to win five SCOOP titles. He won his first title in the 2010 SCOOP and his next four were all won last year, in the 2012 SCOOP, where he was crowned the 2012 SCOOP Player of the Series.<br />
<br />
It will be interesting to see, that can Deeb catch his sixth title and will he be player of the series also this year.<br />
<br />
The 2013 SCOOP will culminate this sunday with the main events. The winner of the overall 2013 SCOOP Player of the Series will be awarded with a SCOOP Trophy + PokerStars and Monte-Carlo®Casino EPT10 Grand Final Package.<br />
