|
Galen Hall, who won the 2011 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure for $2.3 million, will not be attending this year, the poker pro announced on his Twitter account Thursday.
Hall’s Tweet prompted a witty reply from poker colleague Todd Terry.
@galenhall If you win more than $2 million in a poker tournament, you are obligated to continue showing up at it forever

The reason for Hall not showing up?
Taking an impromptu trip to Vancouver & Portland for the weekend, excited to start my last 2 quarters of bschool on mon. Sad to miss PCA :(

In 2012, Hall actually made a deep run in defense of his title, finishing in 64th out of 1,072 entrants. Earlier in the series, he finished fourth in the $100,000 buy-in “super high roller” for $470,400. The PCA has been very kind to the California native.
The 2013 PCA kicks off on Jan. 5 with the $100,000 buy-in super high roller event. The $10,000 buy-in main event starts on Jan. 7 and lasts for a full week.
