Lim Yo Hwan is one of the most famous players in the field, although his fame doesn't come from our favorite Texas Hold'em game. Lim is a very accomplished and well-known Starcraft player, who played professionally the real-time strategy computer game.
According to Wikipedia, Lim is 39 years old, known by the ID 'SlayerS_BoxeR' (usually shortened to BoxeR), and he retired in late 2010 from StarCraft: Brood War and founded the StarCraft II team SlayerS. After this team was disbanded he returned to SK Telecom T1 (SK T1) as a coach before retiring due to health related issues.
Lim has a record of 548 wins and 416 losses (56.80%) in his professional career. He is one of the highest-paid professional gamers, with annual earnings that exceed $400,000 and endorsement contracts that bring in an additional $90,000 per year.
He is still in the field, although he will need some help in order to progress to Day 2, as he is left with 27,000 in chips.
