Mark Seif

Mark "The Shark" Seif, dubbed so for his super aggressive and cunning style of play, worked as a Prosecufor for the DA's Office in Los Angeles before his career in poker started. His attention was first brought to the game of poker at the age of seven, years before making a name for himself by taking 4th in the World Poker Tour's 2002 Legends of Poker event. Since then he's won two World Series of Poker Bracelets, the 2005 US Poker Championship in 7 Stud, taken several major titles, and earned his place among the superstars of the poker world. Seif, who will be a commentator for the Professional Poker Tour upon its airing, currently resides in Las Vegas, NV.
