Seat 3: Pasi Sormunen, 41, Riihimaki, Finland (3,070,000)
Pasi Sormunen, 41, is a businessman who considers himself a recreational player only, taking up the game three years ago. Like his fellow Finn Kimmo Kurko, Sormunen��s first major successes came at home where he finished third in the 2010 Midnight Sun event and then won the 2012 Helsinki Freezeout two years later. Pokeritieto.com reporter Juhani Tyriseva said: "He's not afraid to put his chips in. And that's his strength. No fear, it's just for fun." Proof of this swashbuckling approach was all too clear at EPT London in March, when he tried to bluff Ruben Visser with ace-high. Visser showed a full house and went to win the title, Sormunen finished 15th for ��20,000.
