![[user339878]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Nível 24
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
There was an incredible start to the year with the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure and PokerStars Players NL Hold’em Championship at the stunning Baha Mar Resort in The Bahamas.
And PokerStars Ambassador Nick Walsh says that things are heading in a really good direction when it comes to the live poker scene.
“The French — they absolutely love poker,” he told PokerNews. I'm expecting a very, very large event. Not just because of where live poker is right now, but I know it's been a while since we've had a stop close enough for the French to attend that wasn't Monte Carlo.”

Ren Lin Eliminated in 5th Place (€35,050)
Nível 24
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Once it folded all the way to Kayhan Mokri in the small blind, he simply pushed all-in and into the big blind of Ren Lin. With just 450,000 behind, Lin called and predicted to be ahead despite holding a very mediocre hand.
Ren Lin: 
Kayhan Mokri: 
Lin was indeed in the lead with his jack-high but Mokri improved on the 
flop. Neither player improved with the 
turn and the river for Lin to bow out in fifth place. He cashed for €35,050 and then redeemed his three bounties for additional paydays of €7,500, €7,500 and €10,000 respectively.
Mokri was pondering whether or not to wait but with five further €7,500 left up for grabs, he picked the envelope with the higher prize.

David Kaye "Blown Away" by Impact of PokerStars US Player Pool Merging
Nível 25
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
American David Kaye spoke with PokerNews about his journey from a small-town Michigan poker player to becoming a poker player and PokerStars ambassador.
He also gave insight into the current poker scene in Michigan, and the potential of online poker in the state.
“We know the end goal isn't just two states,” he said. “Two states is great, but this is just the groundwork to get where we really want to be when we have all the states under one umbrella — or as many states as possible.”
