Seat 1: Adolfo Vaeza - 790,000

donpeters

Adolfo Vaeza is the only amateur at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure High Roller final table, but he could easily prove to be the dark horse in this event. While most of the finalists spend all year traveling the poker circuit and/or grinding online, Vaeza has only traveled to three events in his life. The twist is that he's made the final table every time.

He came fourth in the EPT6 London High Roller event for ��141,000, he came fifth in a �5,000 No-Limit side event at the EPT Grand Final in Monte Carlo last season for �51,000. Now the 57-year-old father-of-four has done it again.

Vaeza is from Montevideo, Uruguay and runs a construction company. He plays high-roller events because they have "smaller fields and a high level of play."
