Seat 5: Michael Frydman, Australia - 741,000
Michael Frydman, a 56-year-old company director from Sydney, first took an interest in poker 40 years ago after watching his parents play with their friends on weekends. He’s since turned that passion into six final table berths and more than AUD $60,000 in tournament cashes since 2001, including a third-place finish in the 2006 Victorian Poker Championships. Frydman enters Monday's final table fourth in chips with 741,000.
