Theo Jorgensen's return to the tournament arena this week is even more remarkable given his recent torments. In early December, the Team PokerStars Pro was shot during a robbery at his home. After taking a few months away from the game, Jorgensen is now in the final 14 here in London. He told PokerStars Blog about his recovery.
