Along with Paul-Francois Tedeschi, who won his Platinum Pass in the Day 2 Flipout earlier today, there are four other poker players who have won their way to the PokerStars Players No Limit Hold’em Championship (PSPC).

Dragos Trofimov

Trofimov took down the PokerStars Festival London £2,200 High Roller three months ago. The 24-year-old chemistry student from Moldova defeated Sergio Castelluccio heads-up. Next year's trip to the PCA will be his second in a row after he won a $16,000 package to the 2018 PCA. He'll be hoping for even more success.

Mikita Badziakouski

Badziakouski made short work of Spaniard Raul Martinez heads-up in the Macau Poker Cup High Roller, with the heads-up portion lasting little more than 10 minutes. He took home not just the MPC high roller title, but a seat to the HK$100,000 ACOP Main Event and HK$2,400,000 in addition to his Platinum Pass.

David Peters

Some Platinum Pass winners have to win a tournament in order to book their place in the Bahamas next year, but Peters was even more fortunate. He was the beneficiary of a random draw at the PCA earlier this year and the High Roller regular will be looking forward to a return to the PCA.

Maria Lampropulos

The 36-year-old pro from Buenos Aires, Argentina, took home $1.1 million in addition to the Platinum Pass earlier this year, and will have fond memories of the Bahamas when she returns in 2019 and takes her seat in the PokerStars Players No Limit Hold’em Championship (PSPC). It was Lampropulos's second $1 million-plus victory in just eight months.
