Player Profiles - Seat 1: Jason Brown, Auckland, New Zealand (709,000 in chips) | 2009 PokerStars.net APPT Auckland

The married father-of-two was as high as 1,000,000 in chips on day three of this event, but had to battle through some tough spots and comes to the final table in second chip position. The 33-year-old Brown makes a living as a property investor but that’s taking a back seat as his poker career takes off, having already scored a number of large cashes online and in live tournaments, including 14th in the USD $5000 event at this year’s PokerStars Caribbean Adventure.
