Anton Ionel (Day 5)
Anton Ionel (Day 5)

Anton Ionel is a businessman from Bucharest, Romania. The 43-year-old has been playing poker for ten years, having started to play live in casinos in his home country. Ionel has played several European Poker Tour events before, including the Grand Final in Monte Carlo, as well as cashing at EPT Budapest in 2008 for �6,384.

This, however, is his first PCA for Ionel. Not surprisingly, he has described his trip as an ��amazing experience��. It will also be his biggest career win, topping his previous best result in Timisoara, Romania. Ionel took fifth in the Senator Poker Masters for �9,600. His progress in the Main Event is being watched by his 16-year-old-daughter who is following the action online from back home.

Ionel is a PokerStars qualifier and will enter the final table with 3,530,000 in chips.
