The Canadian poker pro Will Molson is the winner of the 2011 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure High Roller Event. The player managed to outlast a field of 151 players over three days to take down the title and he collected the $1,072,850 first place prize.
Amazingly, the Canadian was the runner up of the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure $25,000 High Roller event two years in a row, in 2009 and 2010.
The player entered a strong final table which included famous poker players such as Erik Seidel, Matt Affleck, Tom Marchese and Maxim Lykov.
"I didn't have much expectations once I reached the final table, as I was coming in with a small stack. But once I reached heads-up, I definitely started feeling the pressure - I really didn't want to come in second again," Molson told PokerNews after his win.
"Fernandez was pretty crazy in the end, he was putting in me some tough spots. I just had to wait for my opportunity and luckily I got it. This is huge for me, finally I got it. I'm so happy."
