A Familiar Austrian Face

Ivo Donev's first tournament cash dates back to April 1999 and he's without a doubt one of the most recognizable faces of Austrian poker.
Donev has $1.4 million in live tournament earnings while his biggest score is just $87,525. For today's standards Donev is not one of the big players, but over the years he has shown that poker is a game of stamina. Donev has 155 live tournament cashes, which puts him 69th on the all-time list of cashes.
Interestingly enough Donev also ranks fifth on the all-time list of countries cashed in with 19 only trailing Barny Boatman, Marvin Rettenmaier, Team PokerStars Pro Marcel Luske, Dominik Nitsche and Casey Kastle.
A new flag won't be added to Donev's resume this week in Vienna as most of his results stem from his home country, but he's likely to be looking at making a deep run to finally notch up a six figure score.
