Seat 1: Mantas ��KRAFTY_LT�� Visockis, 23, Kaunas, Lithuania �C PokerStars player - 1,510,000
Visockis has been playing poker for five years, almost exclusively in online MTTs. Although he was Day 3 overnight chip leader, he had a rocky Day 4 and was very short-stacked until he happily managed two double-ups in a row. He said: ��It doesn��t matter how it ends now, I��m really happy. I don��t play many live events and this is my first EPT. I decided to buy in because I wanted to see how good I am.��
Online, Visockis has already notched up nearly $600,000 in online winnings on PokerStars, including $184,476 for a runner-up finish in the Sunday Million just before Christmas. Visockis is a regular in local tournaments in Lithuania and well-respected in the country��s thriving poker community.
