Matt Matros
Current chip leader Matt Matros first made a splash in the poker world in 2004 when he finished 3rd in the $25,000 WPT No-Limit Hold'em Championship at the Bellagio.

Shortly after that triumph, the former software engineer published the well-regarded The Making of a Poker Player, a thoughtful chronicle of his journey from being a mathematics major and obtaining an Masters of Fine Arts in creative writing to becoming a poker pro. He's currently at work on a novel.
