Mustapha Kanit has had himself quite a year, and now he can call himself champion of the largest European Poker Tour high roller event ever held.
Thanks to a three-way deal in the 2015 EPT Barcelona €10,300 High Roller, Kanit pocketed €738,759 in first-place prize money and moved to over $2 million in live tournament earnings this year alone. Earlier this year, Kanit scored a win in the EPT Grand Final €50,000 Super High Roller for €936,500. What's more is that Kanit's victory allowed him to soar past Max Pescatori on Italy's all-time money list, as the young star now boasts over $4.
