So wow, look at that California vs. Nevada battle ... tight tight tight! And for real, where is the Poker Capitol of the World? So much taxable difference between Daniel Alaei and Daniel Negreanu.
California is the only region, btw, with someone to cash in every single event so far. Nevada players (mostly Las Vegans) have cashed in every tournament but one - the $1,500 7cs that Jeff Lisandro won (representing Italy).
"Europe" has cashed in every single event.
One of the biggest surprise shifts has taken place at the bottom of the table - could you theoretically have relegation in poker? - where the Latin Americans have come on strong to surpass the Asia-Pacifickers in bringing home the most skrilla. Most of this comes on the backs of Mexicans, specifically Angel Guillen's $318k 2nd place score in $2,500 NLH, which a dozen Aussie ITM finishers and a Korean have not been able to match.
