Glen Chorny hails from Ontario, Canada. In 2008, at the ripe age of 22, Chorny defeated 842 players at the 2008 European Poker Tour Grand Final in Monte Carlo. He took home the largest first-place prize in EPT history at just under $3.2 million.
Chorny's resume isn't just a one-hit wonder either. Chorny had already made a few major tournament cashes including a win in the 2008 World Poker Open $5,000 buy-in pot-limit Omaha championship before his big European score.
Chorny is also a regular online, playing under the name 'Choron.'
