From Zero to 66k in 3.2 Days

Stefan Geim's story is an interesting one. One of my German sources on the floor just told me that Geim nearly had to quit his job in order to play this event, since his company was refusing to give him the necessary time off. At the last minute, his boss relented and allowed him to make the trip. Good thing he did-- Reim won his seat in a freeroll on Intellipoker and is now guaranteed a payday of at least $66,675.

After starting the day as the smallest stack in the room, Reim has now doubled up four times so far.
