Seat 7: Max Steinberg, 19, Washington DC, USA - 284,000

Max and his identical twin brother Danny took up poker at the same time when their dad celebrated their 18th birthday by giving them each a poker baseball cap and $50 to open up an online poker account - which they shared. The two also both competed here in San José but it is Max who has reached both the money and the final table. Older brother Aaron is also here at the Cariari Country Club, cheering Max on from the rails. This is only Max's second live event but he says he's feeling calm and managing to keep an even temper.
