Claus Rasmussen is a 22-year-old native of Roskilde, Denmark. Rasmussen used to be a professional player. Table tennis player, that is. He played the game on a pro level for several years, but says he is stepping back slowly from that aspect of his life, as he's found a new game now. Rasmussen is quickly becoming a fine young poker player. He won his entry into this tournament via PokerStars' steps satellites.
