Talk about a crazy ROI. Darren Keyes found his way to the PCA using just 75 FPP's on PokerStars. He earned $150,000 in prize money for his 10th place finish, meaning his estimated ROI (according to a Stars insider) is 12.5 million percent. Here's how Keyes was eliminated from the tournament:

Benjamin Zamani opened with a raise to 180,000 from under the gun. Action then folded around the table to Keyes in the cutoff who moved all in for 930,000. Next to act, Barry Shulman cold-called Keyes' shove and Zamani folded, prompting a preflop heads-up showdown between Shulman and Keyes:

Shulman: {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}
Keyes: {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

The {3-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs}{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} board ran out in favor of Shulman, whose Jacks held up to win the pot and send Keyes to the rail.

Shulman stacked up 7.07 million in chips after the hand.
