Charlie Carrel: "It Doesn’t Hurt To Be Lucky"
Charlie CarrelCharlie Carrel has enjoyed some fantastic tournament results while in Prague, Czech Republic over the years. The €535,250 he collected for a runner-up finish in the 2016 EPT Prague €50,000 Super High Roller ranks in his top five live cashes to this day. You do not get your hands on that sort of money without a lot of skill and a helping of luck.
Carrel got lucky on Day 1a of the delayed 2021 EPT Prague Main Event on March 10. He was involved in a hand during Level 2 that should have seen him heading to the cashier’s desk to purchase a re-entry. As it happened, Lady Luck shone down on Carrel and he lived to play another hand.
