Seat 5: Vladimir Troyanovsky (505,000)

Russia's Vladimir Troyanovsky is a veteran of high roller events, and though you might not guess it, he's a hardcore player of World of Warcraft. Needless to say, he's quite the gamer.

Troyanovsky travels the world playing in tournaments of all sizes, and he recently took one down. It happened back in April at the European Poker Tour Berlin €3,000 No-Limit Hold'em Heads-Up event when he defeated WCOOP runner-up Vojtech Ruzicka in the final round to win €21,600. A total of 16 players competed in that event and created a prize pool of €48,000. Israeli Saar Wilf and German Nima Ahrary came joint third for €6,000; Ruzicka for €14,400 for second.

While Troyanovsky has an EPT win on his résumé, some would say he's overdue for some high roller success. He just might find it today, but he'll have to overcome the short stack to do it.
