Ukraine, like its neighbor to the north, is a relatively new top tier player to the elite Live Poker scene around the world. What it lacks in terms of long-lived visibility though, Ukraine more than makes up for in terms of sheer talent and dominance when its players make their appearance on the felt. Perhaps none-so more exemplified than by Ukrainian-born powerhouse Eugene Katchalov.

The Global Poker Masters is a purely competitive arena where Poker’s top countries can compete for global dominance without gimmicks; with national teams chosen solely on the merit of player’s results, and the advantage of a structure created to showcase players’ skills above everything else.
