A Familar Face in the Field

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

On a brief walk through the tournament field we stumbled across PokerStars tournament regular Yury Gulyy who has been playing often this year in Sochi, including a cash in the Deep Stack side event at the PokerStars Championship Sochi earlier this year.

Gulyy has over $900,000 in lifetime earnings and his biggest live cash came at the EPT 11 Grand Final where he finished 2nd in the FPS High Roller for $121,995. He also has numerous EPT wins in Copenhagen and London, deep Main Event runs in Deauville, Malta, Madrid, Prague and Monte Carlo.

Stay tuned to PokerNews.com to see how he gets on here in Sochi.
