Final Table Bios: Seat 1: Sidney Chreem (93,000)

Sidney Chreem
Sidney Chreem
Sidney Chreem is 38 years old and is a native of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Playing under the moniker "flintstom" on PokerStars, Sidney is primarily a tournament player who enjoys playing both live and online. His final table today counts as his best live tournament finish.

Sidney began his gaming career as a backgammon player, but found poker to be a more lucrative venture. In his real life, he runs a chain of clothing stores back in Rio. He is happily married to his wife Silvia who is back home caring for their two children -- Laura and Gustavo. "We talk every day though so I can tell her I'm getting on," he says. "I'm in this tournament to win so I expect to do well today."

Chreem will begin the day on the short stack, sitting with 93,000 chips, and poised to fight the uphill battle in front of him.
