Seat 7: Bolivar Palacios (1,000,000)
Bolivar Palacios, born and still living in Santiago de Veraguas, Panamá was an industrial engineer for five months until he received a check for $300 and deposited it online. Since that deposit, he has cashed for $350,000 in lifetime winnings online. Now a professional poker player for a year, he has two final tables under his belt. He took seventh place in the LAPT Mexico event and played another in Season 2 in Punta del Este. He think he is a better online tourney player than live tournament player, but he seems to be proving his theory wrong so far this week. He is a member of the "rat pack of Panama" along with his best friends, Jose Severino, Victor Lemos and Jose Miguel de la Guardia.
