Machado, who hails from Portugal, has been playing for many years, yet has only ever won ranking poker events in his home country. With a total tournament earnings of $79,986, should Machado go on to win the Millionaire Maker, he'll bag a seven-figure score for victory - a result that so many recreational players who remain in the event are dreaming of.
