Vince Van Patten
The terms “celebrity” and “star” get tossed around pretty loosely in the entertainment world. Anyone who’s made an appearance on television or made the news for any reason suddenly gets labeled a celebrity. Not so in the case of Vince Van Patten. Those terms couldn’t be more fitting for the man who was almost literally born into stardom and has shone brightly in various areas of entertainment including acting, tennis and as a commentator for the World Poker Tour. Van Patten was born in 1957 in Bellrose, N.Y., the son of actor Dick Van Patten and his wife Pat. He has two older brothers, James and Nels, and all three of them grew up in the thick of the entertainment business.

The $2,500 six-handed Event 26 recruited 1,245 players with Will Haydon emerging with the victory, winning the event for $630,031, one of the largest first-place prizes awarded this year.
Patrik Antonius
Patrik Antonius was born in Vantaa, Finland on the 13th of December, 1980. Ever since he was a young boy Patrik was very competitive and excelled in many sports including hockey, soccer and tennis. When Patrik turned 13 his tennis coach felt he was good enough to turn pro if he focussed solely on tennis. Patrik decided to do just this and spent the rest of his teenage years playing tennis. It was at the tennis club that Patrik learnt how to play poker. Many of the players would play cards on their training breaks. As fate would have it Patrik would get a long break to practice his poker playing when he fell injured from a bulging disc in his back.
