Here Comes Nacho

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

It took us a while to find Jose "Nacho" Barbero, who is hidden in a far corner of the Sheraton ballroom. Barbero is a player for Team PokerStars Pro (Argentina) who had a banner 2010. In addition to shipping the EPT London High Rollers Event for a cool GBP556,000, Barbero captured back-to-back LAPT titles at Punta del Este and Lima to add another $500,000 to his bankroll.

He's already off on the right foot here in Sao Paulo, having doubled his stack to 40,000 in the first hour.
