Sometimes, in poker<\/a>, the stars align for you and greatness can be achieved. Canada’s Sebastien Proulx<\/strong> can attest to that being true. You see, when Proulx wakes up later today and logs into his PartyPoker account, he will find his balance has increased by a massive $123,602. He also gets to call himself a poker champion, the MILLIONS Online KO Main Event<\/strong> champion, no less.<\/p>\n

Proulx’s victory was impressive in its own right because it is difficult to come out on top of a stellar field of 978 entrants in a $1,050 buy-in $1 million guaranteed<\/strong> tournament. However, Proulx’s victory is one of the greatest poker achievements seen at PartyPoker because he won the $123,602 top prize for only a $6 investment<\/strong>. Six bucks, let that sink in for a while.<\/p>\n

The Canadian’s decision to enter a $6 MILLIONS Online KO Phase 1 satellite turned out to be a solid choice. Proulx progressed from that $6 buy-in satellite and found himself in a $33 buy-in Phase 2 affair. He then made it through the Phase 2 and took his seat in the no direct buy-in final, which he where he qualified for the $1,050 buy-in MILLIONS Online KO Main Event. Three days later, Proulx had his name in lights after becoming the Main Event’s champion, an accolade that came with $123,602, and for only six dollars! What a guy!<\/p>\n
