Seat 8: Brent Roberts (1,011,000)

[user66118]

Brent "Astrolux85" Roberts is 23 years old and comes to us from Staten Island, New York. Roberts is a professional poker player who laughingly says he learned the game from Phil Hellmuth's Play Poker Like the Pros. Just four-and-a-half years into his poker career, Roberts is already making a name for himself. He final tabled an event at the WSOP (finishing 5th), won a FTOPS Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed event this year, and took down a $1,000 event in the Venetian Deep Stack Extravaganza for more than $111,000.

Roberts is looking for his biggest cash win here today, and he's in fine shape to do just that; he sits on top of the heap with a massive stack of 1,011,000.
