Daniel Alaei Daniel Alaei is a resident of Santa Fe Springs, CA. He began his World Series Of Poker escapades in 2005, with a seat at the $10,000 World Championship Event - and made it to an impressive 140th place (of over 5,600 entrants) before busting out. He earned $54,965 that day, and the respect of his peers. Though he's played in several of the 2006 WSOP games, it wasn't until the No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball w/Rebuys event that he grabbed his first bracelet. See More Profiled World Series Of Poker Players
