Crazy Poker Online Player Finishes 9th at Monte Carlo Millions
21 Nov 2004
CrazyPoker made an impact when Pokers elite converged in Monaco for
the Monte Carlo Millions, hailed as the most exclusive Poker
tournament in the world. Sponsored by Prima Poker, this invitation
only exclusive tournament boasted an estimated prize pool of
$1,000,000 and had Poker players such as Chris "Jesus" Ferguson,
Phil Ivey, Howard Lederer, Scotty Nguyen, the Hendon Mob, and many
more competing for the honor of victory. However, the surprise came
with the large presence of online Poker players making an
appearance at the final table and even clinching first and second
place. Online giant Vegas Partner Lounges CrazyPoker.com was also
present and their representative, Briton Kevin OConnell, not only
made it to the final, but finished 9th over all. The phenomenon of
online Poker has created vast opportunities for unknown players to
join the ranks of seasoned professionals and even win. Online Poker
players are increasingly becoming a feature and a force to be
reckoned with at land based tournaments. Virtual unknowns in the
big time poker arena have sprung up and caused quite a disturbance
at the tournaments worldwide. Perhaps one of the reasoning is that
of practice and the other being sponsorship. Online Poker groups
and other Prima Poker Network Rooms have been supporting the game
as well as its development. Online Poker players get a lot of
practice and get to play tough games. CrazyPoker witnesses
increasingly tough competitions at their weekly tournaments and
freerolls. These weekend warriors are the future of tournaments
like World Series of Poker as well as the Monte Carlo Millions.
With the growth of online Poker, the land-based tournaments will be
increasingly challenged by the online Poker players, who are
constantly improving. Mostly because of the hours of game play that
can be accumulated right in your own home. The Monte Carlo Millions
proved that online Poker is a force to be reckoned with and with
online players honing their skills at online Poker sites like
CrazyPoker, the face of the game is about to change. |
