Tomorrow begins the World Cup of Poker Finals in Barcelona, Spain. We have already introduced you to ShaunDeeb, Team USA's tournament powerhouse. He will be playing in the World Cup of Poker finals with four other tough Americans, including D-28 and principe4.
D-28
I'm married , 48 years-old , with two sons (18 and 15) and a daughter (12). I love the beach, fishing, golf, and, of course, poker. I have played home games recreationally for 30 years. Making it to the World Cup team is easily my biggest poker achievement. The World Cup of Poker experience is really just sinking in now. I entered on a whim and now am heading to Spain. What a blast! I seem to have some solid teammates,so I'm looking forward to meeting them and hopefully we can bring the cup home to the U.S.
principe4
I am 38 years old and have two beautiful daughters. I have had MS for 10 years and
I walk with a cane. The nickname Prince of Poker was given to me by my poker buddies (after winning all the home games). This has been a fairy tale story and I hope to inspire others. I have been playing poker for two years. This is my biggest poker achievement and I hope we can win the cup for USA. It has been a great experience and really lifted my spirits. This has been a dream come true for me and hope the fairytale continues. I also would like to thank PokerStars for this opportunity. This was a freeroll that made my dream come true.USA...USA...USA!
