I was pretty shocked that JP and JA didn't make it in either. People were able to submit their own nominations via the Poker Europa website, so its not like it was completely out of the public's hands.
Mini brags: I'm the one who suggested/created the online player of the year category and I'm also a judge at the awards this year (Had nothing to do with the selection of the nominees however).

Canada's not in Europe, so I guess they wanted her included and went for a European country instead? |

Yevgeniy Timoshenko may have been worth a shout, although they maybe have considered him American rather than Ukranian.

I am sure JP is really upset ... I am sure he will get over it when he looks at his bank statement and jewellery box though |
