BILOKUR JUMPS TO #2

Alex Bilokur (GPI#13) pushes his way up to #2 on the Player of the Year charts this week, trailing our leader Keven Stammen (GPI#58) by just a little over 30 points.

Bilokur most recent successes came at EPT Sanremo, where he earned a 48th place finish in the EPT Main Event and cashed out in third place in the EPT High Roller.

The Russian pro has company inside the Top 5 as Mukul Pahuja (GPI#7), whom the WPT declared as their Player of the Year for Season XII on Wednesday, and EPT Sanremo High Roller Champion and new World #1 Ole Schemion (GPI#1) also jump into the Top 5 this week.
