Tomi Walamies is a Finnish former professional player and three time, back-to-back, National Champion. He experienced the most success in the early 2000s; he finished second at two Pro Tours, including PT New Orleans 2001, where he would have won the event had his opponent, Kai Budde, not topdecked Morphling on the last possible turn.[1] He posted a third Pro Tour top eight at PT London 2005 after having been absent from the game for over a year, after which he mostly quit the professional scene.
