  The person won what seems to have been a VERY obscure WGT Tournament. There were only 14 people who entered. the top prize was a trip package valued at $7000.

  Curious as to why there were only 14 participants? and all were level 59 or less.

  Donation tournament. Probably not only 100 bucks though...haven't seen it anywhere while it lasted(3 days iirc).

  But yeah i laughed a bit when i saw his name on top earnings leaderboard.

  I posted last week when he first appeared atop the monthly and I checked him out. His other 4K in earnings was a very similar tournament back in the Fall. It was explained to me in the other thread that it was a private event, invitation only to big donors to I think, Diabetes Association or something like that.

  That made some sense of it to me. I was as bewildered as you guys when I first saw this, lol.

  I guess the dollar figures are a trip prize package value, Thread last week was titled "Strange But Interesting", posted 6/8. It really makes no sense to include such a thing in the earnings leaderboards, but....... oh well.
