Stephane Albertini is a 30-year old poker player from France with $492,711 in lifetime tournament earning. While mainly a cash-game player for the past 14 years, Albertini tends to travel for the ring-game action and occasionally jumps into a tournament or two.

That's how he managed to finish sixth in the 2010 EPT Deauville for $182,616 and a 46th-place finish in the 2011 World Series of Poker Main Event for $160,036. Albertini also has tournament cashes from such places as Mauritius, Spain, Belgium and Germany. Today he'll be adding his first WSOP Europe cash to his résumé.
