Twenty three year old Oliver Lombard, the online poker player, made a payment for his holiday and during the year while holidaying away from his position as a civil engineer in France made a decision to participate in the two point five million dollar guaranteed Internet poker competition called Titan Poker.
This decision brought him in a half million dollars in first prize money although he began on the left foot when he nearly didn’t remember to play several days prior to the main event in the qualifying rounds. He remembered to take out a free token for the two and half million dollar satellite just in time, and ended up with a place in the final after finishing the top five positions.
While still on holiday in Senegal, with all credits going to the magical Internet, Lombard managed to triumph the main event after fourteen hours and participate in the arena of one thousand five hundred and ninety six participants.
He later remembered that he played as logically as possibly while not thinking of the stakes. Frequently during the game he ensured that he made strategic changes contingent on blinds and his competitors.
