It's easy to see what Jen first saw in Marco(credit: Full Tilt Poker)
This Italian-born, former hairdresser has broad shoulders and soulful brown eyes. He met future wife Jennifer Harman in the parking lot of the Mirage while on vacation in 1999 and it was love at first sight – how romantic!!! Now, he plays poker too. Traniello finished in the money seven times at the 2005 World Series of Poker. He lets his missus give him some advice from time to time…AND HE TAKES IT!
Marco Traniello is a father of two (he and Jen became the parents of twins last year) and plays online at Full Tilt Poker. The hard-working Traniello, who honed his game with the help of not only his wife but also pals such as Carlos Mortensen, Erick Lindgren and Daniel Negreanu, also had a great showing at both the 2006 and 2007 World Series of Poker.
In ’06, Marco cashed in four WSOP events. In ’07, he followed that up with three cashes, making final tables in all three of those tournaments. He went deep in the WSOPE Main Event that year, claiming $57,000 in that prestigious event as well.
So far, he’s collected $440,000 in tournament play alone and the future will only tell how bright this poker star will shine. With his skills, connections and work ethic, Traniello will be building his bankroll for decades to come.
