"Standard IMO"

Well done Peter, and congrats to Ivan as well.

At least the US can't take their cut from Peter.

well a big congrats from denmark to u Peter , yes taxes is skyhigh in Denmark
, as far as i know peter lives in England(so no tax...)

97 is too old 25 might have snuck through

I´m also from Scandinavia and I think poor Peter is really going to have to pay at least 50 % taxes, LOL LOL LOL!

That´s called wellfare state, LOL LOL LOL!

U yankees call it communism.

i think it would be 60% if he were to pay income tax on it. atleast in sweden, however, this is not how it works with poker winnings. in sweden it is 30%. this is due to the fact that poker is viewed as a luck based game, not skill-based. otherwise u would be able to deduct your losses etc. hence the idea of losing money in vegas before going back(wink wink) as someone mentioned would not work. could someone post the hand history of the last hand btw? i was surfing for porn simultaneously and missed it.
