Michael Tureniec first rose to fame back in 2008 when he finished runner-up at the Season 5 EPT London event, earning ￡525,314. That finish is still his best ever live result although his total lifetime live tournament winnings now amount to nearly $2 million. Last November he chopped the EPT Barcelona €2k side event with fellow Copenhagen finalist John Eames, earning €140,000. Michael has only had one job in his life – working as a supermarket cashier – a job he abandoned to become a professional poker player more than six years ago.
