Alex Bolotin is originally from Belarus, but he comes here today as a resident of New York City. Alex has nine cashes in his WSOP career, including two already this year. His two this year were both final tables as well, making him three-for-three on the year! Last year, he finished second in a short-handed no-limit hold'em event, taking home more than a half million dollars. He is still looking for his first WSOP title, though, and hopes today is the day.
