Michael Chu Bio
Born in Seoul, Korea, Michael Chu made a name for himself in the United States at the 2007 World Series of Poker when he won the $1,000 no-limit hold?em tournament with rebuys. Chu has a degree in political science from the University of California at Berkeley and works as a stock trader by day. With only a mere $1,000 invested in the event, Chu received an incredible return on investment when he won the first-place prize of almost $586,000.
