US Million Dollar Winner
The United States may not be a mecca for online casino gambling any longer, but
the internet poker gambling community is alive and strong and still competing on
the international scene. PokerStars.net an absolutely huge gambling group in the
international online poker scene; the company has one of the largest poker
networks on the planet and boasts a huge number of simultaneous gamblers. The
Million Dollar Challenge was an internationally televised event that featured
some of the top land and online casino poker gambling professionals. Most
recently, the Million Dollar Challenge took place with an entry-field of more
than 16,000 poker players – and only one player could walk home with the
million.
Mike Kosowski, 53 years old and a retired policeman from New York City, actually
won the huge Million Dollar Challenge after facing off with land and online
casino poker gambling greats like Daniel Negreanu. Negreanu and Kosowski faced
off in a head-to-head battle at the final stages of the major internet poker
event; and through skill and certainly a pinch of luck, this Kosowski was able
to propel himself onto the internet poker scene with this major coupe of a win.
Kosowski certainly did not expect to walk away champion of the Million Dollar
Challenge – that was just a dream when he entered the huge online casino poker
tourney at Poker Stars. The televised event will show the tense battle at the
end as Kosowski managed to edge out Negreanu for the win. As for going pro?
Kosowski knows that luck played a big part in his win – not discounting that
he’s a skilled player, but pros like Negreanu know the game of poker inside and
out and that’s what makes Kosowski’s win such a coupe in the industry. |
