Seat 9: Amit Varma, India (1,241,000 chips)
38-year old Amit Varma grabbed attention as our Day 2 chip leader and that's a position he held throughout Day 3 to enter our final table as easily the biggest stack in the room. Amit has been playing poker for three years after getting started on the play money games on PokerStars.
Varma has a string of small cashes to his credit from tournaments in Goa in India, but he has enjoyed the great structures offered at the APPT to allow him to play his natural game.
Interestingly, Varma is budding novelist. He enjoys writing and will be looking forward to writing the final chapter in what could be an epic story at this afternoon's final table.
