After his victory in the €5,300 buy in event the 26-year-old said, “It feels amazing. We played a long time. Yes, I’ve realized I’ve won but it will take a few days to settle in. I don’t really feel like I’ve won yet, but I’m really happy.”
He now has over $2 million in career tournament winnings and an EPT title to add to his Italian Poker Tour one.
