Chad Batista

Chad “Li’holdem” Batista is 25, slightly built and looks like he’s barely 16. He dresses street-fashion with turned-around caps and oversized clothes, he’s had “not much” education, his work experience consists of one week as a telemarketer, and at the poker table he chatters away, plays unpredictably and seems in a state of perpetual excitement.

Chad Batista

Chad “Li’holdem” Batista is 25, slightly built and looks like he’s barely 16. He dresses street-fashion with turned-around caps and oversized clothes, he’s had “not much” education, his work experience consists of one week as a telemarketer, and at the poker table he chatters away, plays unpredictably and seems in a state of perpetual excitement.

Away from the table he’s an exceedingly polite and well-mannered, “yes, sir, yes ma’am” young man. Act or not, TV will love him if he ever gets on camera.

He taught himself by watching other players, and never read a poker book. Online, he won two PartyPoker million-guarantee events in one month. Batista is from Coral Springs, Florida.
