Udine first made his big splash on the scene when he went on a good run in the second half of '06; taking first place in the Full Tilt $400K Guaranteed and the Stars Sunday $100 re-buy for a combined $125K. More recent cashes include finishing second in the PokerStars Sunday Warm-Up for $73,900 (Apr '09) and another second-place finish in the Full Tilt Poker $1K Monday for another $59K (Dec '08). And just this past September Udine won $74,000 when he final-tabled the WCOOP $1K NLHE event. His largest online tournament cash came in August '09, when he won the FTOPS XIII Event #12 ($1,000+60 NLHE) for $304,800 after agreeing to a heads-up deal.
Udine has also been developing his live tournament skills and has a number of live event cashes to his credit. Since 2006 he has managed to post eight cashes for a combined $120K in winnings. His biggest live cash is still his first, when he won $70K after finishing second in the $1K No Limit Holdem Bellagio Cup II. He also managed to finish in the money in one event at the WSOP this year, placing 75th in the $2500 NLH six-handed event for a cash of $5K. His most recent cash happened in the $3K Championship event at the 2009 Borgata Summer Poker Open, where he finished 13th.
