Seat 7: Rob Hollink, 48, Groningen , Netherlands – 259,000 chips
Father-of-three Hollink was the first ever EPT Grand Final champion back in Season 1 in 2005. The veteran Dutch pro has played numerous EPTs since but has never again mirrored that early success. Before reaching Vilamoura this year, he wrote on his blog that he was likely to bust in the first few days so he would have plenty of time to play golf. How wrong he was! His last EPT cash was San Remo in Season 4. He also became the first ever Dutch WSOP bracelet winner when he won the $10,000 Limit Hold'Em World Championships in 2008 for almost $500,000. He is currently the final table short stack but still in with a chance of being the first ever double EPT champion.
