Seat 7: Vicky Coren-Michtell, 40, London, UK – Team PokerStars Pro - 910,000 chips
When Vicky Coren-Michtell won EPT London in 2006, she was already well-known to poker fans for her appearances on the mould-breaking Late Night Poker show on Channel 4. She became the EPT’s first female EPT champion on home turf – at her local casino “The Vic” in the heart of London – for a massive £500.000 payday. However for many in the UK, she was (and still is) better known as a writer, TV presenter and journalist. The multi-talented Coren-Michtell – who married British comedian David Mitchell last summer – has a huge fan base (250,000 twitter followers) and is now aspiring to make history as the EPT’s first ever double champion. Her last big result before today was also in London when she finished sixth in the EPT8 London High Roller for £67,130; this season she was 20th in the same event. She also won the EPT8 Grand Final €5k Heads-Up tourney in 2012 for €58,900. Her live tournament winnings are now close to $1.8 million.
