Final Table Bios: Seat 9, Atanas Gueorguiev (186,500)

Age: 38
Hometown: Sofia, Bulgaria

Former cab driver Atanas has been playing poker professionally for over three years and has qualified for several EPTs enjoying reasonable success. He came 42nd in the EPT Season 3 Monte Carlo Grand Final for €19,000, came 17th in the EPT Prague £2k side event last season for €4,500. His best result to date – aside from reaching the final table here in Warsaw was last May when he final tabled at the WPT Spanish Championship, coming eighth for €37,897. Married with an 18-month-old son, Atanas says he has been gambling all his adult life and, like many players, came into poker via backgammon. He said: “I prefer playing live cash games but I have to admit I’m a better tournament player than cash player.”
