Seat 4: Bolivar “Ramux” Palacios - 2,445,000
The name Bolivar Palacios may sound familiar if you’ve been following the Latin American Poker Tour. Palacios has made three LAPT final tables to date, with his best finish coming at LAPT Rosario in Brazil. He came in second at that event for $188,280. Palacios is now guaranteed to beat this figure at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure.
Palacios, known as "Ramux" online, 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 on the virtual felt. In the live realm, Palacios holds nearly $280,000 in tournament earnings.
Palacios will be the only Latin American at the table and is a member of the “Rat Pack of Panama” -- a group which includes Jose Severino, Victor Lemos and Jose Miguel de la Guardia. Palacios’ reported ambition is, “to become a millionaire". That's a goal he will definitely achieve with a fourth-or-better finish here at the this final table.
Palacios is 27 and hails from Santiago de Veraguas, Panama. He is a PokerStarsPokerStars[/url] player and will enter the final table with 2,445,000 in chips.
