Heres a look at the qualifiers PokerNews has profiled so far:

Romanias Dorin Barban Headed to the Bahamas

When it comes to getting to the Bahamas, no doubt one of the qualifiers wholl be traveling the farthest will be Romanias Dorin Barban.

I qualified through an online satellite tournament on GGPoker, he told PokerNews. It was an incredible journey because I started with a free ticket of $50 offered by GGPoker to the ultra-satellite $600 that offered 50 packages of $10k, and I brought home the package. I’m grateful for the opportunity.

He added: I’m not a professional poker player, but I have experience playing online, said Barban, who also shared that hes played live events before. I’ve also participated in a few local tournaments, but theWSOP Paradise Main Event is going to be a new challenge for me, so I’m eager to participate.

Barban comes in with a little moment as at the end of August he topped a field of 967 entries to win an online poker Mystery Bounty tournament, which he said is his most memorable poker moment thus far.

I’m looking forward to the beautiful setting of the Bahamas, competing against top players I’m sure, and the chance to win big. It’s a dream come true, he said while also sharing that he plans to explore the resort, enjoy the beach, and just relax. However, he also hopes to run into some of his favorite poker players.

It would be an honor to meet and compete with some of the poker legends such as Daniel Negreanu and my poker heroes from Italy Mustapha Kanit and Dario Sammartino. I’m looking forward to the whole experience.

And if hes lucky enough to turn his shot into a big payday?

If I’m fortunate enough to win big, I’ll use the prize money intelligently, including investing in my poker skills and possibly participating in more live events, said Barban.
