Steve Sung

Steve Sung is a 24-year-old professional poker player. He lives in Torrance, CA, which is in the South Bay of Los Angeles. Born in Seoul, South Korea. He immigrated to the U.S. with his parents at the age of seven.

Sung attended the University of California at San Diego and neared graduation. But he left school with one quarter of credits left to go. He intends to return to college in the future and complete his education. When asked what he expects to earn a degree in, Sung joked, "When I decide, I will let you know," a revealing answer which typifies a young man with many interests and future options.

Sung stated that one of his secrets to maintaining enough energy to sustain him through several long days of poker playing is to eat fresh fruit during his breaks.
