Rehne Pedersen Bio

Born in Aalborg, Denmark, Rehne Pedersen made a name for himself in the poker world late in 2005. He became a regular on the European Poker Tour, but was still relatively unknown throughout the world.

However, that all changed when Pedersen won a satellite into the WPT Bellagio Five Diamond Classic in December 2005. Pedersen managed to work his way to a final table that included Doyle Brunson, Phil Laak, J.J. Liu, Patrik Antonius and Darrell "Gigabet" Dicken. With such a stacked final table, Pedersen was a long shot to win, but he managed to not only survive at the final table, but to come out victorious earning over $2,000,000 for the win.
