Dortmund EPT 2nd Place Finisher Online Poker Player

The European Poker Tour is the brainchild of the people who created the World Poker Tour, and like the WPT, the EPT always draws a lot of press. This year a new event, the Dortmund tournament, drew healthy crowds and there were many online poker qualifiers, such as Italian poker player Christiano Blanco. Blanco made a second place finish at the Dortmund EPT after qualifying for his seat at online poker room Everest Poker’s $100 + 9 EPT Winner’s Choice, picking up Euro 380,000 in the process. Dortmund EPT was won by Andreas Hoivold from Norway.
