I love e-sports! My husband and I were watching the Street Fighter tournament and were literally on the edge of our seats cheering for our favorite gamer Fuudo who took 2nd place and lost to Infiltration . Its interesting to see that the top winners are from Korea and Japan with only 1 from USA. The earnings are alot and I wonder how the career aspirations will change over time to more young boys and young men being interested and spending their hours studying e- games vs their academics as well as will the interest of young boys learning martial arts decline as opposed to playing these fighting games.

1. Korea, Republic of Korea, Republic of $50,642.00 1 Player
2.Japan Japan $46,906.60 6 Players
3. United States United States $3,521.40 1 Player
