mach 5 retard slides into top 10
High Roller player mach 5 retard may not be pulling in win after win however numerous cashes are just as effective to gain points and get noticed. After a few final table appearances, mach 5 retard landed a first win in Day 5 at the $1K Hyper event and added another in Day 6 at a High tier event. mach 5 retard nearly claimed a third win but fell short one spot at the $1K Hyper to player PocketJah. mach 5 retard’s stats were plenty enough to slide into the top 10 of the GGSeries 2020s Leader Board.
