Germany's 27-year-old Paul Michaelis is an experienced poker player in both live and online fields. His most significant accomplishment came three years ago when he notched a WSOP bracelet, topping a 639-strong field in the $1,500 Pot-Limit Hold'em event for $189,818.

That payday remained Michaelis' largest score until his deep run here at EPT Prague where he's guaranteed to set his new career-best result. Michaelis is no stranger to making the headlines in the Czech capital. Last year, he led the PokerStars Championship Prague Main Event for two consecutive days (Day 2 and Day 3) only to settle for a 28th place finish.

Michaelis has now dominated the EPT for two days straight again. Much to his benefit, it's been in the deeper phase with Michaelis able to seize the chip lead ahead of Day 5 as well as ahead of the final day.
