Happy Birthday, Dear Boutros

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante
Boutros Naim
Boutros Naim

Tucked away in a corner of the Salle des Etoiles, Boutros Naim had reason to celebrate early on Day 1a of the Main Event. No, he hadn't won a big pot yet, but he had quietly let slip that today was his 65th birthday. However, seated at table one, seat one, and hidden beneath a hat, sunglasses and a scarf, Naim was determined to keep a low profile.

Naim is an EPT regular, and we saw him at the last EPT stop in Malta. His biggest EPT cash however came in the Season 11 opener in Barcelona, as he cashed the Main Event in 61st for €16,300.

As for birthday celebrations, Naim said he had no plans, but that he would definitely be celebrating if he made it to Level 6. With eight levels scheduled for today, we'll have to wait and see if there are any birthday surprises in store for him!
