Everybody Needs Good Neighbours
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
Right at the back of the tournament area (a very large conference centre/ballroom/event cavern with plenty of room for both cash games and the EPT Main and side events) is a table shared by Joao Barbosa and Atanas Gueorguiev (the latter in position). Barbosa has $1,000,000 in tournament cashes, most of them on the EPT, including one title at EPT Warsaw in 2008 for �367,140. Most recently he won the �2,000 side event at EPT San Remo this year for another cool quarter of a million, and seems to be in good form. However the consistent Gueorguiev is going to be problematic for him - just now taking down a pot preflop with a big blind three-bet after the button had raised and Barbosa called in the small blind.
