A Canadian with Name We Can Pronounce Wins EPT German Open
Michael McDonald, an 18-year-old ice farmer or beaver hunter or Nickelback fan club president or something like that from Canada, won the EPT German Open in Dortmund, Germany. For the win, he takes home €933,600, or about $1.39 million.
McDonald, who goes by the name "Timex" online, is the youngest winner in EPT history.
For more on McDonald's historic win, check out the wrap-up piece by PokerListings' Owen Laukannen here. It's hot.

Dear Wicked Douchechops,
We here in Canada have a lot more going on than our lucrative ice-farming and beaver hunting operations.
Haven't you ever heard of a little thing called maple syrup? Huh?
Douches.
Now if you'll excuse me I have Nickleback fan club meeting to attend.
