He already paid for a house with cash at 19. He will most certainly probably move out of Michigan, maybe to Vegas. I think this was a hot streak. Kid really isn't better than Ivey.

Deuce I say yes too. Doesn't matter how much money you have if you lose it all in 3 years. The kid is a degen. Very reckless and in fact one of the luckiest fuks on the planet. He got all his money in preflop at the final table atleast 2 times that i remember and sucked out both times.
Jeff Schulman's JJ < his 33 all in preflop
Antoine (French Guy) QQ < His 22 all in preflop
Antoine (Frenchie) 88 < AK all in preflop. (Cada hit a King on the river for a 90 million chip pot, which was equivalent to about 5 million dollars value worth of chips.
The kid will be broke if he doesn't invest and be smart about it.

nah, he will invest a large chunk of it and then move up in stakes...do you bozos not read anything? the kid makes a great living already playing online. winning almost 100k in 3 online tournaments in the last few months...they say he is one of the better $10/$20 players online. gotta get lucky as a 2 dicked dog to win a huge tournament like this one anyways. he will be fine

He is the exact demographic the big poker company's want to market to. I am sure pokerstars will ink him to a multi year, multi million dollar contract. He has a likeable personalty and has game, I hate to break it to the negitive losers in this thread that not all poker players/sports bettors lose long term. He did get lucky in a few spots but so does anyone wins a big tournament. As long as he does not rush out to play in the blood games he will be fine. He was a winning cash game player before he won the tourny, he must already have a good grasp on micro and BR management unlike the above degen posters.

Probably not, he will get a shit ton of publicity and endorsement opportunities now. Moneymaker hasn't done shit since the 2003 WSOP and is raking in money through Pokerstars.

This guy is still rambling telling me that he isn't even that good. Saying he lost 300k in Vegas when he was there playing with cash. Unreal. I know if I won millions I want to go play small time bubble gum shit for pennies in a barreled in fukks basement. Unfukkinreal.
