Welcome back to Team PokerNews, Jussi!
We are lucky to have a diverse range of members grace our Team this year. We welcome the first and only Research Scientist (in the field of Molecular Genetics) to our Team PokerNews – PokerNews Cup Australia (PNC) 2008. Jussi Vuoristo has been playing poker for 39 years. “It is a nice way to spend time with family and friends,” says Jussi. These days, he mostly plays poker online with a preference for No Limit Texas Holdem. Jussi has won many freerolls which have awarded him access to some of the world’s biggest poker tournaments. How did he feel about winning this $7,000 PokerNews Cup Australia Freeroll? “Excited and surprised… Not again!” comments Jussi. The Finn celebrated with a glass of decent Cognac and a cigar. His long list of major tournament appearances include the 2006 Caribbean Poker Classic in St Kitts, 2007 PNC Australia, 2007 South African Poker Open and the 2008 PokerNews Cup Austria. This will be his third visit to Australia. To follow all the action at the most coveted tournament Down Under, stay tuned to PokerNews.
