Another day, another tournament, another million dollars ... not a bad year for Sam Trickett ... not a bad year at all!
Trickett has just picked up his THIRD + million dollar paycheck, this time winning the Partouche Poker Tour Main Event Final Table. This is the fifth PTPR Score of the season for Trickett - who has had a dream season for sure.
Apart from his million euro win today, Trickett had double + million dollar pay days back in January, at high roller events at the Aussie Millions ...

It looked like Salman Behbehani had every major pro pulling for him and for Trickett. Many were hoping that these two players would play heads up - and they did. Behbehani held the chip lead heading into Final Four play and, in fact, didn't lose the lead until the last two hands of the night.
Third place finisher Oleksii Kovalchuk can at least leave with a consolation prize - apart from the 379k EURO he gets to bring home - the WSOP bracelet winner, who has been hot on tour this season - lands in 20th position overall on the PTPR Player of the Year list for 2011, just a few points behind two-time 2011 EPT High Roller champ Philipp Gruissem.
FINAL FOUR PAYOUTS (IN EURO):
Sam Trickett 1.000.000€
Salman Behbehani 600.000€
Oleksii Kovalchuk 379.760€
Ilan Boujenah 300.000€
