Seat 1: Rodrigo “caprioli” Caprioli, 31, Sao Paolo, Brazil – 2,945,000
Caprioli is a PokerStars SuperNova Elite who bought into this year’s EPT Grand Final using FPPs – 850,000 of them! He has been playing poker since he was 12, and professionally since 2005. Like Team PokerStars Pros Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier and Dario Minieri before him, Caprioli says he’s in line to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from PokerStars – a stunning personalized TAG Heuer watch for reaching 5,000,000 lifetime VPPs (VIP Player Points). The watches are inscribed with the players’ user IDs and the date they hit five million. Online, Caprioli mainly plays PLO cash games; this is his fifth EPT and first EPT final table; he finished 16th at EPT London in Season 6 for £19,000.
