Seat 9: Seval Hægeland ('Biffen 1' on PokerStars)

Hometown: Lyngden, Norway

Chip Count: 127,500

It’s been a massive month for Norwegian poker after 19-year-old Annette Obrestad won the 2007 WSOP Europe main event. Seval Hægeland is hoping to follow in her footsteps with victory in the APPT Seoul main event. A native of Lyngden in southern Norway, the father of two qualified for his trip to South Korea via a $1 buy-in tournament on PokerStars for Nordic players, outlasting a massive field of more than 800 players. The 40-year-old bricklayer has been a lifelong poker player, and first picked up Texas Hold’em about four years ago. He’s hoping to use the experience he gained in last year’s PokerStars EPT event in Barcelona to steer him to victory in Seoul.
