Jaatinen has been playing poker for six years but just as a hobby. This is by far his biggest result to date so far. He is a post-graduate student studying for a PhD in Economics. Mikko was competing in Tallinn alongside his better-known brother Jussi who is a very successful player in his own right and will be able to offer more than ample support for the final. His studies are the main priority in his life right now so even if he manages to win EPT Tallinn, he says he will still be selective in how many EPTs he plays in the future.
