Nacho Barbero
Biography Jose “Nacho” Barbero is an Argentinian poker player and WSOP bracelet winner.
A former PokerStars Pro, Barbero has enjoyed a long poker career, from winning a European Poker Tour London £20,000 High Roller as far back as 2010 and finishing fourth in the 2023 PokerStars Players NL Hold’em Championship for $1,551,300 — the largest cash of his career.
Also in 2010, he won two LAPT Main Events, in Uruguay and Peru. Barbero has enjoyed much success in South America, cashing in Peru, Panama, Uruguay, Colombia, Brazil and his native Argentina over the course of his career.
However, a WSOP bracelet eluded him. That was until 2022 when he won Event #67: $10,000 Super Turbo Bounty No-Limit Hold’em for $587,520.
“It feels amazing. I’m so happy. Literally, my dream in poker was to win one. It’s amazing,” Barbero said following his win. “I’ve been coming since 2007, I think, or 2005. So many close ones and never could close it out. And, finally.”
