Stefan de Vries
Team PokerNews member, Stefan de Vries hails from the city of Zutphen in Netherlands. “I’ve been playing poker for about a year and a half now,” explains Stefan. He got hooked on poker after a friend taught him how to play the game at a party. Now, the economics student mostly plays poker online with the occasional home game with friends. He admits to dabbling in sit-n-gos and multi-table tournaments. However, in recent weeks he has been spending his time playing cash games. Winning this €1,500 PokerNews Cup Austria Package is the Dutchman’s biggest win to date. He felt “very excited, I didn’t expect to win at all… it was about 1:30am so I had to be quiet – but it wasn’t very easy!” Stefan celebrated by sharing the news with his friends (some of whom may follow him to Austria) and having a couple of beers in the city. When not busy at the tables, expect to find Stefan in the soccer field at least twice a week or having a drink or two with his friends. This will be Stefan’s first experience at a major poker tournament and his first visit to Austria. “I’m just really thankful for this opportunity… I’m looking forward to seeing the city of Salzburg and the casino, of course.” Want to find out how Stefan and the rest of Team PokerNews fare at the 2008 PokerNews Cup Austria?
