Renga doesn't describe himself as a professional player. He plays a lot of poker but his day job is running a hunting magazine. This is Renga’s fourth EPT cash out of only seven tries. The 44-year-old has already made the money twice in Barcelona (Season 6 and 7) and Prague just a month ago. Those results come in addition to a string of final tables and deep runs in smaller tourneys in Lithuania, Estonia and his native Latvia. His most lucrative cash before now was runner-up in a €1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha side event (“my favorite game”, he says) during EPT Berlin for €29,700. Renga is being supported by his wife and two children who are following his progress from home.
