Montreal Nationals Starts Slow, But Finish On Top of the GPL Americas Conference

The Montreal Nationals are heading to the first ever Global Poker League Final after defeating the LA Sunset in six games. The final match saw team managers, Marc-Andre Ladouceur of the Montreal Nationals beat Maria Ho of the LA Sunset to guarantee a spot in Thursday's final.

The day started with the Nationals playing against the fourth seed San Francisco Rush. The Nationals went down 0-2 and it looked like the Rush might upset the top seed. Pascal Lefrancois had travel issues and missed his first match so Mike McDonald filled in, but he lost to Jonathan Jaffe.
