Pete "The Greek" Vilandos

Sun Jun 14 2009

Winner of Event 24 - $1,500 No Limit Hold'em

69-year-old Pete Vilandos became the WSOP's 127th millionaire after adding the $607,276 he collected for his first place finish in Event 24 to his career earnings total. The two-time bracelet winner credited math, patience and plain old instinct for helping him reach the winner's podium: “The Internet players – they are very good players. But we are the old fellows and we have a gut feeling that we go with.” I, too, have a gut feeling: this isn't the last time we'll see Pete Vilandos at a WSOP final table.
