Congratulations to BJfan4 for his $50000 win last night in Montreal (Monday October 23). It was the fifth of sixth stops of the Quebec Masters Series before the Grand finale in March 2007 ($150,000). With the 2000 points he gets for his win, he moves into the top 10 and has a good chance to win a free entry to that Grand finale ($2000).
Personally, I busted out in the crapshoot qualifications format (top 42 out 210 qualified for the semi-finals (one winner per table), then 6 players + a wild card make it to the finals. BJfan4 won his semies by $62, doubling up succesfully on the last hand, then, in the finals, as BR1 on the last hand, he covered the all-in by BR2 and got the cards while his opponent busted.
