Rapid Reaction: Is Erik Seidel the G.O.A.T.?

Before the 2015 PokerStars and Monte-Carlo® Casino European Poker Tour Grand Final began, one of the things we hyped was that the €100,000 Super High Roller field could be the largest ever. With 71 entries, our prediction was spot on.

One thing we didn't focus on, though, was the chance at a big, superstar winner. The thing is, there was probably somewhere around a 95-percent chance that this event was going to be won by one of poker's biggest names. That, or a talented, new young gun was going to walk away with the title.
