Bjorin to Win
![[user4144]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Whilst there is a slight lull in play, I feel obliged to serve up a few words on Chris Bjorin. A silent assassin of the felt, Bjorin is perhaps one of the most underrated players in the game, having not only survived for decades, but also run up over $4.6 million in live tournament winnings including two bracelets (1997 & 2000) and a final table appearance in last year's WSOPE Main Event. But despite all these accolades, very few people have heard of the wily veteran, and he rarely receives the credit he deserves.
Swedish, but now residing in London, England, Bjorin is a cash game grinder who has an unrelenting penchant for these big tournaments, and can often be found alive and kicking come the business end. He's played in numerous cash games around the world, and even faced the legendary Stu Ungar during his prime.
If you ever want a poker story, then you can't go wrong with Bjorin, but if you want a soft spot in a tournament, then you'll need to look elsewhere. He doesn't make much noise, and often flies under the radar, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him taking his seat in tomorrow's final. With 225,000, he's certainly in with a shout.
