Seat 4: Kully Sidhu, 33, Walsall, UK

Webjoker

Kully Sidhu is a professional poker player who’s already experienced the EPT limelight when he made the final at EPT10 London, Season 10. He was the first to depart on that occasion, winning ￡60,640 for eighth place. However, Main Event finals aside, it was at EPT12 Barcelona where the 33-year-old from Walsall banked by far his biggest cash. Sidhu took part in a three-way deal in the €10k High Roller along with Mustapha Kanit and Nick Petrangelo and was awarded second place.

The €640,000 prize accounts for the better part of his $1.3 million in live tournament winnings to date and he’s currently ranked 74th in the England's all-time money list. Three months ago, he took down the €10k High Roller at Master Classics of Poker in Amsterdam for €161,172.

Sidhu also has a plethora of achievements on local tours in the UK, having won the GUKPT Manchester in 2010. In April last year, he was up against Patrick Clarke on the final table of UKIPT5 Nottingham and the two Brits will face each other again here in Dublin.
