Seat 4: Fabiano Kovalski, 34, Brazil – 12,925,000
Fabiano Kovalski might be called the EPT Barcelona Main Event specialist. This is the fourth time he will be cashing in this tournament, adding to his ITM finishes from 2016, 2018, and 2019.
The second cash was the biggest as Kovalski came close to making the final table. At the time, he would bow out in 11th place for €98,900.
With over $1 million in cashes and experience with such a deep run, Kovalski is in a great spot to make the most of his first EPT Main Event final table appearance. And it's not just Barcelona where Kovalski thrives. The Brazilian boasts nearly $5 million in online winnings at PokerStars, where he plays as "kovalski1".
