Seat 8: Paul Febers, UK (PokerStars Qualifier) �C 2,930,000
This is the first UKIPT Main Event for current third-in-chips Paul Febers. he 27-year-old from Glasgow started playing poker nine years ago by participating in online freerolls and has since made a living from the game. He prefers to play online and has only attended about 20 live events - with Galway being his first UKIPT. Febers has many cashes under his belt and at the beginning of the year scooped $80,000 in Full Tilt Poker��s MiniFTOPS. He describes the Poker Village as ��a great venue�� and tried his hand at the �2,000 High Roller side event �C from which he unfortunately busted within 10 minutes. He��s saved his deep run for the �1,000 Main Event and winning it would mark his best achievement in live tournament poker to date.
