Puccilli has been playing poker for eight years with excellent results, especially on the Italian Poker Tour, where he is one of the most popular players at the tables. His IPT performances include winning IPT Sanremo in June 2009 for �120,000, finishing fifth at IPT San Remo in December 2009 for �27,000, 22nd at IPT San Marino in 2010, 29th at IPT Venice 2010 and third place in a �1,100 IPT Campione side event for CHF 21,900. Puccilli was the real star of the first IPT season in 2009/2010 and was voted both IPT Player of the Year and PokerStars Qualifier of the Year during the IPT awards in San Remo. The last year hasn��t been as successful but he has still managed to be the only Italian player on the first EPT Campione final table - out of 242 who started the event! He��s planning to use his winnings to take care of his family, increase his bankroll and maybe buy a good car. When he isn��t playing poker, he says he works ��full time as a happy dad��.
