Seat 3: Diego Zeiter, 29, from Argentina, lives in Bern/Switzerland, PokerStars player - 1,780,000
Diego Zeitar was born in Argentina, but grew up in Switzerland where he graduated in economics last year. Zeiter resides in Bern but says his heart belongs to Argentina. He has just one word for his Main Event deep run: "Vamos!" Done with school duties, the 29-year-old can now fully focus on poker again. Zeiter is a long-time poker pro, who picked up the game back in 2007. He's accumulated nearly $600K in live tournaments so far. Zeiter's biggest payday was $113,819 for sixth place in a $1,500 NLH Event at 2013 World Series of Poker. Zeiter has already captured a trophy at PokerStars sponsored events. He won the EPT13 Prague €2k Turbo Knockout for €25,700. However, Zeiter's bread and butter are online tournaments. His stellar CV includes several six-figure cashes on PokerStars. When he's not present at live or online poker tables, Zeiter can be often found on a football pitch, slopes and a tennis court.
