Hometown: Ashadod, Israel
Chip Count: 199,000
Plans for a relaxing trip to the Philippines after qualifying online for the APPT Manila event have taken a dramatic turn for this 25-year-old from Ashadod, a small town to the north of the Israeli capital Tel Aviv. Maor Feldinger has played online at PokerStars for about three years (as live poker is not available in Israel) and like Roger Spets, is playing in his first live tournament. ��Wow�� is how Feldinger described reaching a final table at his first attempt. A computer science student, Feldinger is hoping to emulate the feats of famed Israeli player Eli Elezra, who won the $3000 Seven-Card Stud Hi/Lo (eight-or-better) title at the 2007 World Series of Poker.
