Seat 3: Denis "NEWFlat" Timofeev, 29, Perm, Russia, PokerStars qualifier
Denis Timofeev’s first 15 minutes of fame came when he made the final table of the IPT7 Malta Main Event. The Russian pro, now 29 years old, finished in eighth place there, collecting €16,030. Since then, Timofeev has racked up significant results in multiple EPT side events. He banked €35,560 for a runner-up finish in the €1k at EPT12 Prague, then returned to Malta last October to seize his first silver spade. His win in the €2k side event was good for €64,600, his largest live result to date. Timofeev also scooped another €51,100 at EPT13 Prague, finishing second in the €5k Turbo. He'll crest $300k in live tournament winnings with this PokerStars Championship Panama result.
A fan of his hometown football club, Amkar, Timofeev has notched some hefty cashes on PokerStars, as well. Using the moniker "NEWFlat", he is one of Russia's top online MTT grinders, with results that include a six-figure Super Tuesday title and a third-place finish in a Sunday Million.
