David RheemJust after the 2008 World Series of Poker main event began its three-and-a-half month hiatus, Card Player TV sat down with David “Chino” Rheem of the November Nine. The interview with Rheem can be found on CardPlayerTV.com.

The CardPlayer.com player database provides a brief bio on Rheem, reproduced below:

David “Chino” Rheem hails from Los Angeles, California. He is a professional poker player and has been playing for about 10 years. His first major tournament cash came at the 2005 World Series of Poker. That same year, Rheem cashed in the main event, as well. Since then, Rheem has followed the tournament circuit, cashing in WPT preliminary tournaments as well as more WSOP events along the way including a near-bracelet win in the 2006 $1,000 buy-in no-limit hold’em rebuy event. He finished second for almost $328,000. At the 2008 WSOP, Rheem cashed in the $5,000 mixed-hold’em event, and also made the final table of the $10,000 main event. He will join the other eight players in November when play reconvenes. He is guaranteed to make at least $900,670.
