Imagine buying into an online poker tournament for a mere $5 and a few days later seeing more than $30,000 make its way to your account. That is exactly what happened to “Johaenski” of Germany at GGPoker.
The German bought into the $5 Mini Global MILLION$ event, part of the microMILLION$ series, and came out on top of a monster-sized 88,700-strong field to bank a cool $30,202. Johaenski’s prize would have been even larger had they not made a three-handed deal at the business end of the tournament.
