Seat 3: Pierre Mothes, (27, Solingen, Germany – PokerStars qualifier) – 1,073,000
PokerStars qualifier Mothes won his seat to EPT Loutraki via PokerStars Steps satellites. He’s a manager for a wholesale company but has been playing poker for seven years. He first started by playing home games with friends but then opened an online account on PokerStars. He only plays tournament poker and this is his second EPT main event – he also qualified for Vilamoura last season but busted close to the money. In 2008, he had a nice run during a live tournament week in Dortmund and won three tournaments in four days, including the €750 main event for €9,410. Online, his best result was winning The Bigger $33 on PokerStars for $8,000 in October.
