Hometown: Las Vegas
Country of Origin: United States 
Originally from Dallas, Texas, Paul Wasicka received his first poker experience at an underground tournament in Denver in 2004. Having never played before, he got a 15-minute lesson from his friend, and maybe someone should get that guy a book contract. Wasicka finished ninth out of 100 entrants, and that was enough to hook him.
Wasicka began his poker career online, and after building a significant bankroll playing ring games, he turned his attention to tournaments. This ambitious player already has more than $7.5 million in tournament winnings. His largest cashes include a second-place finish in the 2006 World Series of Poker main event, which was good for $6.1 million. He finished fourth in the 2007 World Poker Tour L.A. Poker Classic championship event for $455,615, and won the 2007 NBC Heads-Up Championship for $500,000. He also made waves during an appearance on GSN's High Stakes Poker.
