The 42-year-old full-time poker player has been jetsetting between Australia and New Zealand in the past few years. He won his seat into the APPT Auckland Main Event via a $120 satellite here at SKYCITY. He learned the game online, playing under the name eagle_ke and though he’s one of the short stacks, he says it’s “unbelievable” to make the final table. “I’ll still need to wait for good hands,” he said.
