An online qualifier is the new fan favorite at EPT Monte-Carlo

Hungary's Krisztián Györgyi, who got into the Main Event by winning a $5 satellite online brings some much-needed excitement to the tables.

The legendary hand started with Dan Abouaf raising to 32,000 and was called by Federico Petruzzelli and Gyorgyi as well. On the flop of ♥A♥K♣K Abouaf continued with a bet of 26,000, Petruzelli called only to fold to the 140,000 check-raise from the Hungarian. Dan made the call. The ♥2 hit the turn and Krisztián continued with a 200,000 bet. Petruzelli moved in and Gyorgyi made the called for his remaining 427,000. What happened next is one of the most hilarious scene ever at a poker table:

Even though, the title says "We won!" in reality the qualifier said the following:

"There it is, f**k yeah, what's up!? What's up, f**k it!"
"What's up!? What's up!?"
"I'm Gyuri (short version for Györgyi in Hungarian) from the hill!"
"I love you, my mother, f**k it! I love you!"
"Gyuri from the hill, f**k it!"

Much to the delight of the viewers, the Hungarian player is still in, sitting on a decent stack of 45 big blinds. Follow the action live here:
