Final Table Player Profile Seat 1: Philipe Pizzari
Philipe Pizzari's poker career took off when his ��other�� career, in finance, took him from his native Sao Paolo, Brazil, to Miami, Florida. That was when he left the online game behind (��I wasn��t very good��) and focused more on live poker.
He now plays regularly at the Seminole Hard Rock and when the WPT stops in Florida. He has lived in Miami for seven years, still working in investment funds, and hanging out with his wife and 2-year-old son. In his spare time, he plays some sports and works out, but is focused on work and family.
He still travels back to Brazil, and plays on the BSOP if dates work out. He also enjoys playing in Las Vegas, particularly the WSOP Main Event.
��Being at this final table is such a dream,�� he says of the PSPC. ��I already had a very nice deep run at the WSOP Main Event and I thought that, as a recreational player, it would be almost impossible to get a great deep run again. For me this is one of the most important events of the year. It��s a big dream and I��ll try to have fun.��
