Brader's Break Through?
Thomas Brader has played a few EPT Main Events in his life, but has never been able to cash in one so far. In fact, he now has the biggest stack he has ever owned in one with 185,000.
Brader told us he took a move from his buddies Freerk Post's play book, by just calling with 
before the flop. Brader flat called with that monster before the flop, and just called on the flop as well. By the time the turn was out on the board, Brader's opponent had a small enough stack behind to just pound it in. Brader called again, and it turned out he was up against top pair. The river blanked, and Brader bounced his stack up to 185,000.
Brader may have never cashed in a Main Event, he did cash twice in side events here in Barcelona. During the EPT Barcelona poker festival in 2012, Brader made a min cash in a �1,000 side event. At last years EPT Barcelona he did a little better; he finished third in a �2,000 Turbo Bounty side event for �19,600.
