Aaron Kanter

Birthdate: May 18, 1978
Birthplace: Lodi, California
Current Residence: Elk Grove, California
Nickname: AK, Knockout

Aaron just attended his first World Series of Poker and he made a strong run at the title coming up just a little short, but it was a great finish in 4th place. Aaron is 27 years old and he is now a former loan officer. Aaron began playing poker in high school, and now he spends the majority of his time playing poker online. He earned his way into the field of the main event by winning an online satellite. He is a very aggressive player that is always looking to knock somebody out (that's why he is known as Knockout Kanter). He keeps his skills at a high level by playing online poker for about thirty hours a week. He decided to give up his 9 to 5 job when he started earning more money playing online than he was going into work everyday. Aaron is another young gun that made his name known at the World Series, but he will be a player that will be around for a while especially with his aggressive style of play.
