6/24/2012 – 6/30/2012 - it was a week that Ryan "Moca Choca89" O'Donnell will never want to remember. Prior to this week he was in fifth place on the 2012 total profit leaderboard with $208,302.

Soon after that he managed to reach top 3 and his goal became very achievable. But variance can be very cruel sometimes…
