Can you count how much money is in the pot?

Hi everybody!

These days have been pretty busy...Since I came back in Berlin, after a week in Rozvadov for the PartyPoker Millions Main Event, I've worked a lot on my new site so I didn't post much here. Anyways, today's Saturday so I'm having a bit o spare time to share with you something else from my trip there.

I already told you what happened in Rozvadov, and if you've missed it, well...

One thousand and twenty-two players were fighting for this trophy and a 1 million of euros money prize.

The blond guy on the left - Viktor Blom, a true online legend of poker known as 'Isildur1' - won the tourney with a spectacular call on the last hand.

Is this the end? Not at all...

The action was going on the other tables with smaller events, as this 220€ monster stack on which our friend Nicolina managed to reach the money.

One picture here, another there, and the gaze falls over the high stakes tables...

On one side there's a bored 'Isildur1' watching a Chinese poker match with another legend of poker, Gus Hansen. The Danish pro is known as the worst online player ever, with something like a 20 million loss, after having crushed the live scene for years. He's also a Backgammon champion but everybody knows he's a true gambler, no matter the game.

On the other tables, players are having a break. They're playing Pot Limit Omaha and it seems a pretty high game considering the stakes. Let's have a closer view...

All right. The green/orange chips are worth 5.000€ each, the yellow/red 1.000€, 500€ for the pink ones, 100€ the white and 100.000€ for every plate. Can you approximatively count how much money this guy has on his side?

Nice shots! Why don't you watermark the pictures @bronsedi ? ;)

Yes I should...just lazyness :)

Nice post :) I have just read it now :) I love the photos with the new objeective. We can really see the face expressions and the tension in the room. Those high stakes are crazy and this guy- How can someone loose 20 millions?

Ehehehhe, playing high stakes online. This guy is kind of a legend in poker, he has been both a massive winner and loser, in the last interview I had with him he told me he was just not controlling himself while playing online and did a lot of bullshit =)
