Eric Lynch is one of the big online players who has made a very successful transition to live play. That doesn’t mean to say that the man known as ‘Rizen’ has stopped crushing the online games though.

Eric Lynch is one of the big online players who has made a very successful transition to live play. That doesn’t mean to say that the man known as ‘Rizen’ has stopped crushing the online games though.
This weekend saw one of the toughest final tables to have come together online in some time, which was eventually conquered by Tomgus456. For his win, TomGus456 won $25k, with Rizen taking $14k for his second place finish.
This was the second cash for TomGus456 in this particular tournament, and is starting to show signs of being one of the emerging talents. Last week he went out in 65th spot, but at this time of asking he not only saw off Rizen but other online pros including Andrew “Fergwrx” Ferguson, and previous Bodog 100k guarantee champ GibinMauler.
The final placings were:
1. Tomgus456 — $25,000
2. Eric Lynch “Rizen” — $14,000
3. michaelahci — $9,000
4. Trick320 — $6,500
5. GibinMauler — $5,400
6. ranch111 — $4,400
7. Mr_Mojorisin — $3,400
8. Andrew Ferguson “fergwrx” — $2,400
9. thecure19 — $1,550
