Hej.
Er der nogen der har et link til et site der har en lille fortælling om hvem de sidste 9 i EPT CPH er?
Her tænker jeg ikke på navn og chipscount, men info på hvem der er prof, amatør, tidligere resultater osv.
Eller evt. en PN'er der kan det på fingrene?
Hvem er de sidste 9?
hvornår starter det egentlig?
kl. 13.30 tror jeg nok....
Seat 1 - Jesper Petersen with 968,000 in chips
Jesper Petersen, 27, Aarhus, Denmark, PokerStars player
Jesper Petersen is a former economics student, who has been playing poker professionally since 2004.
He took up poker early that year and by the end of it was playing full time. To date Petersens biggest result came in a side event at the Irish Open in 2007 where he finished fourth and while he has cashed in WSOP events since 2006, EPT Copenhagen will be his biggest career cash.
Petersen was close to elimination on day one, dropping to 9,000 before doubling up with aces just before the dinner break. He went on to finish the day in strong position and has played solidly since, his fortunes helped greatly on day four when his straight beat the flopped set of Peter Eastgate.
Seat 2 - Francesco De Vivo with 2,073,000 in chips
Francesco de Vivo, 39, Turin, Italy
Francesco De Vivo has been playing poker online since 2005 and professionally for the past two years. The father of two from Turin is playing his first tournament as a sponsored professional since winning a special event in Vienna, earning a package of tournament buy-ins worth $100,000.
De Vivo cashed in the 2008 World Series Main Event, and at a side event at EPT Prague in 2007, but his best results have come in Italy, where he became Italian champion for his performances in 2008.
De Vivo spent the first three days of EPT Copenhagen short stacked and card dead, but two hands helped him on his way, the first a piece of luck, when his pocket eights beat aces. Then on day four he doubled through Roberto Romanello, leaving him with the chip lead going into the final.
Seat 3 - Yorane Kerignard with 1,164,000 in chips
Yorane Kerignard, 24, Aix-en-Provence, France
Yorane Kerignard has been playing professionally for three years, concentrating on multi-table tournaments online.
EPT Copenhagen is only his third major live tournament but will be his best live result, beating his previous best payout of $7,000 in a 500 buy-in event. His biggest online cash was for $122,000 in a $1,000 buy-in tournament, and his online talents have been used well to win his seat to EPT Copenhagen on PokerStars.
So far things have been easy for Kerignard, who by his own admission lives and breathes poker. Hes had no need, so far, to make tough decisions for his tournament life but as he said at the end of day four he looks forward to whatever the final table brings.
Seat 4 - Magnus Borg Hansen with 1,164,000 in chips
Magnus Hansen, 22, Kastrup, Denmark
Magnus Hansen is no stranger to the final tables of the European Poker Tour and finished third here in Copenhagen in 2008.
He earned more than two million Kroner for that performance, his biggest win to date, and it was a contributing factor in his decision to turn pro last May after he had finished studies in IT.
He is also a keen CounterStrike player and used to be a member of one of the top 20 teams in the world.
Seat 5 - Anton Wigg with 1,412,000 in chips
Anton Wigg, 22, Stockholm, Sweden, PokerStars qualifier
One of a huge army of highly successful professional Swedish players, Anton Wigg is enjoying his best ever appearance at an EPT Main Event.
Indeed, its his first ever cash on Europes premier tour, although he took down the European Masters in Barcelona for 55,000 last July and made a final table of a PCA side event last month.
Despite his tender years, he has played poker for four years, three as a professional, and won his seat here in a 500 satellite on PokerStars.
Seat 6 - Morten Guldhammer with 2,033,000 in chips
Morten Guldhammer, 35, Aalborg, Denmark, PokerStars qualifier
Morten Guldhammer is the fairytale story of the final table. He won his seat in EPT Copenhagen through a series of tournaments run by PokerStars with the Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet.
First he beat 1,457 opponents in a $1 buy-in tournament. Then he beat 15 other tournament winners for his EPT Copenhagen package. Normally only a freeroll player, he has already earned more than ever before and has surpassed his pre-tournament goal of making day two.
He has cultivated a loose aggressive style during the tournament and was responsible for bursting the bubble beating Craig Hopkins and knocking out at least five others en route to the final table and a stack of more than two million.
Seat 7 - Richard Loth with 1,436,000 in chips
Richard Loth, 42, Aalborg, Denmark
Married with four children, Richard Loth is a recreational player who normally plays multi-table tournaments online. He has been playing for four years and bought in directly for this event, and is now enjoying his biggest result live or online.
He has taken this tournament one day at a time and has progressed steadily to the final table hell return to his career as a consultant come what may.
Seat 8 - Roberto Romanello with 1,551,000 in chips
Roberto Romanello, 33, Swansea, UK
Bedridden owing to a football injury in 2006, Roberto Romanello reached for his laptop and began playing poker online the first step in a career than would earn him more than $600,000 in live tournament winnings, and counting.
Romanello won the European Open last February, worth $200,000, and this is his best result so far on the EPT, bettering his 32nd place in Copenhagen last year. He battled food poisoning on day three, but ended with the chip lead.
These days Romanello considers himself to be a full-time poker professional but used to split his time between playing poker and helping to run his family's award winning fish and chip shop in Wales.
Seat 9 - Morten Klein with 748,000 in chips
Morton Klein, 41, Norway
Morten Klein learned poker from his father with his four brothers and sisters. It was a hard school, he said.
Klein now has three children of his own, aged 11, 17 and 18 and he has already taught them all how to play. When he is not playing (or teaching) poker, Klein works for a Norweigan online slot-machine company.
Klein has played poker seriously since 2006 and his major results are 51st place at EPT Barcelona 2009 and second place in the Norwegian heads-up championship in 2009.
