Before dedicating his life to poker, Nikita worked in aviation for 11 years.
His journey into poker began back in 2009, and until 2022, he played at an amateur level.
Nikita still remembers his first significant win: in 2011, he placed 5th in a tournament with a $250,000 guarantee, earning his first substantial reward of $8,000. This motivated him to keep improving and striving for more.
The game became an integral part of his life, particularly MTT tournaments. When Nikita saw the 'People's Ambassador' promotion on PokerOK, he didn’t hesitate, as he had been playing on the platform and logging a significant volume of hands.
The stakes were perfect for him, and the game brought immense joy.
From the very beginning, he took the lead and approached every milestone tournament with great responsibility.
In the third week of the competition, he dropped to 15th place, but this setback didn’t deter him. Instead, he worked hard to recover and ultimately achieved the coveted title!
"Serenity, pleasant exhaustion, and the thrill of victory," the player said upon learning of his triumph.
