Israelashvili Making the Most of His $2,250 Investment

Level 21
Roland Israelashvili
Roland Israelashvili

Roland Israelashvili has made it to the final five players here in the $50,000 Poker Players Championship and locked up a minimum of $317,882. Prior to this score, the largest of Israelashvili's career came in 2010 when he won the World Series of Poker Circuit Caesars Atlantic City Main Event for $264,715. Israelashvili has one other six-figure cash on record and that was from 2005 when he took 37th in the WSOP Main Event for $235,390.

Israelashvili won his way into this event via a $2,250 satellite that plenty of big names played in order to get a cheaper seat. Israelashvili has definitely maximized his small investment and will be pushing for even more, despite being the shortest stack remaining.
