Seat 2: Kimmo Kurko, 30, Tampere, Finland (2,265,000)
Kimmo Kurko is a fulltime poker player who turned pro in 2008 after a win in Helsinki. He followed this up a year later by winning an EPT5 Sanremo €2,000 event. It was enough to make him a regular on the European circuit, with earnings to date of more than $1.1 million. Pokeritieto.com reporter Juhani Tyriseva said: "He's a lot like Juha Helppi. He doesn't make many mistakes."
