Born November 11, 1983, Julian Track was a prolific online poker player under the moniker “jutrack” where he had sustained success over the past decade playing primarily pot-limit Omaha (PLO).
His biggest success on the live felt was in 2013, when he won the European Poker Tour (EPT) Prague for €725,700.
Track amassed $1,038,891 in tournament earnings in the live realm according to the Hendon Mob. Almost all of that — $994,463 to be exact – came when he topped a 1,007-entry field to win the aforementioned EPT Prague. It was there he defeated a stacked final table that included Georgios Sotiropoulos (2nd - $959,245), Stephen Chidwick (3rd - $517,992), Ole Schemion (5th - $299,147), Max Silver (6th - $219,530), and Jorma Nuutinen (8th - $115,931).
Despite his success in Prague, Track couldn’t imagine switching to live poker saying at the time: “There are too many really good players at the tables, and the other thing is that I don’t like when players think about a decision for five or six minutes.”
That year Track also won his way to the Aussie Millions in February 2013 where he wound up cashing in two tournaments.
“Maybe the Aussie Millions will be my last live event”, he said at the time. In fact, Track would cash just two more live tournaments – fourth in the 2014 EPT Barcelona €1,100 NL Omaha Hi/Lo Championship for $8,282 and eighth in the 2015 EPT Malta €1,100 IPT Main Event for $22,233.
On January 17, 2023, Track unexpectedly passed away after a traffic accident at the age of 39.
