Seat 4: Remy Murcia, France – 4,325,000
Remy Murcia hails from Nice, so he will enjoy playing his first major final table in what is considered the home event for Provence residents.
Murcia first competed in online fields before he discovered live action, but now he can be seen mainly in the local casinos near his home – in Cannes and Aix-en-Provence.
But he’s also been to Las Vegas and Mauritius, and the overseas trips helped him gain the experience needed to succeed in live tournaments. With his previous biggest payday at €18,600, he’s guaranteed to set a new career-best result.
