Seat 2: Amir Touma, 41, Lebanon - 1,180,000 (7 Big Blinds)
Touma��s biggest result to date was just $23,251 for making the final of the Merit Middle East Poker Championship in Cyprus back in 2011.
This is only his second EPT �C he also played the PokerStars and Monte-Carlo?Casino EPT Grand Final back in May and has also cashed in a few side events. Nearly all his recorded results come from events in Kyrenia, Cyprus however. His live tournament winnings amount to $71,596 so far �C a sum totally dwarfed by the life-changing �104,000 he��s guaranteed for making the nine.
If Touma takes it down, he will be our third EPT champion from Lebanon after EPT London winner Joseph Mouawad and EPT Grand Final champ Nicolas Chouity.
