Seat 2: Max “$Kill Game” Weinberg - 3,350,000
Max Weinberg initially studied psychology at Arizona State university, but then dropped out after one semester to start playing poker full time. Online he favors heads-up sit-n-gos in the $500 to $5,000 range, and believes he is up about $300,000 to date.
Weinberg came to the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure with his friend Gabe Paul who qualified on PokerStars in a SuperNovas’ freeroll. Weinberg said about the PCA, “I’ve always looked forward to playing the World Series, and I turn 21 in April so this is kind of a warm-up. I’ve
had some luck to make it this far... in the first few hours of Day 1, I had pocket sixes
and was all in on a 7-8-9 flop against aces. I hit a 5 on the river for a straight.”
Weinberg is 20 from Chicago, Illinois and enters the final table third to last in chips with 3,350,000.
