Where Are They Now - Patrik Antonius

Where are They Now is a series of an in depth look at all poker players - not just the pros - as they travel through one long game. Some of the players profiled are deceased but not forgotten.From time to time during our “Where Are They Now” series, it’s surprising at how far along we’ve gotten when a name comes up that hasn’t been written about yet.  Some are just honest mistakes.  After all, when close to 150 biographies have been written, some names are bound to get through the cracks.

Where Are They Now – Ilari “Ziigmund” Sahamies

Where are They Now is a series of an in depth look at all poker players - not just the pros - as they travel through one long game. Some of the players profiled are deceased but not forgotten.The first time I saw Ilari “Ziigmund” Sahamies was during the Game Show Networks “High Stakes Poker.”  Shortly after that I also saw him on NBC’s “Poker After Dark.”  Two things came to my mind when I first saw him.

Where Are They Now – Shaun Deeb

Where are They Now is a series of an in depth look at all poker players - not just the pros - as they travel through one long game. Some of the players profiled are deceased but not forgotten.I have been particularly interested in writing the story of Shaun Deeb for quite a while. Watching him go from one of thousands of grinders online, to one of the most popular players of our era has been one of the highlights for me as I’ve covered poker.  You can imagine my surprise when I read a few months ago that Deeb had announced his retirement from tournament poker.

Where Are They Now – Joe Cada

Where are They Now is a series of an in depth look at all poker players - not just the pros - as they travel through one long game. Some of the players profiled are deceased but not forgotten.One of my favorite things about writing the “Where Are They Now” series is seeing what World Series of Poker Main Event winners are able to accomplish after their huge win.  In short, it varies. A select few go on to win the event multiple times.  Some go on to win multiple bracelets.  Some just fade away. Read more

Where Are They Now – Amir Vahedi

Where are They Now is a series of an in depth look at all poker players - not just the pros - as they travel through one long game. Some of the players profiled are deceased but not forgotten.This is a particularly tough bio to do because just this week the poker world lost Amir Vahedi, who succumbed to what at present time is believed to be complications resulting from a nearly life long battle with diabetes.  While his life was tragically cut short, his poker career was no less exciting.

Where Are They Now – Jon Finkel

Where are They Now is a series of an in depth look at all poker players - not just the pros - as they travel through one long game. Some of the players profiled are deceased but not forgotten.When you have written nearly 150 “Where Are They Now” profiles, expectedly some of them can start to run together.  Don’t get me wrong, I still continue to enjoy writing about all the players that make up poker, and each individual still gives me a sense of wonderment about how their particular path took them to the top of the poker world.

Where Are They Now – Jason Lester

Where are They Now is a series of an in depth look at all poker players - not just the pros - as they travel through one long game. Some of the players profiled are deceased but not forgotten.There are many players in the world of poker that come and go.  Today’s big winner could become yesterday’s news.  It doesn’t always have to be like that though.  Sometimes yesterday’s news can once again become today’s news, and that certainly stands true for Jason Lester.
