Spampinato hails from Italy but now lives with his wife Daniela in Malta. He works full-time as a sports trader plays poker for fun; he won his seat for the Main Event in a �500 live satellite at Portomaso Casino.
Online, he plays MTT and has had some good results, including winnng the Big $55 two years ago for $17k. The �125,660 he��s now guaranteed for making the final 6 table is ten times his total live tournament winnings to date. Because of his work, he can't make many poker plans so thinks it��s unlikely he��ll be able to go to EPT Prague. However if he wins, he says he and Daniela will use the money to buy a home and start planning a family.
