Stefan Mattson: Swedish Idol?

The dashing Stefan Mattson playing on Day 5
The dashing Stefan Mattson playing on Day 5
Stefan Mattson is a professional poker player from Stockholm, Sweden. Amazingly, he is on a short list of players who have made the top 60 in the money in the WSOP Main Event in back to back years. Last year, Stefan finished in 57th place and this year, he is still going strong with 29 players remaining. His sponsor is Team ParBet, and Stefan plays a lot of poker online-- as he lives in a country where online poker is totally legal.

In the audience rooting for Stefan today are two of his friends, Markus and Heinrich, who flew out to Las Vegas to support their friend in the world's largest poker tournament. Stefan is quite handsome, young, and is single (you hear that, ladies?)

And for him today, life is good.
