Tae Joon ‘Skat tilt’ Noh

Lives: Korea

Age: 25

Tae Joon was born in Seoul, Korea. Before poker like many other millionaire poker players, Tae Joon came from a pro gaming background. He was a competitive Warcraft 3 pro gamer in Korea. Unlike its counter-part Starcraft, he didn’t see much potential in the game in the e-gaming industry and was in search for something new to satisfy his competitive urges.

Surrounding himself with poker players with similar backgrounds he was able to pick up the game very quickly and started playing full time on PokerStars. Tae Joon is now a Supernova Elite player and the only Korean national on PokerStars Team Asia Pro.

Tae Joon made his debut at the 2008 APPT Season with an epic heads up battle that lasted longer than six hours, where he secured a solid second place in Manila worth approx. $103,143 USD. Since his debut he has cashed in events at the 2009 Macau Poker Cup, placed 4th in the $1000 HKD rebuy event and 4th again in the $50,000 HKD High Roller Challenge.

In his spare time when not playing 24 tables at a time on PokerStars or flying around the globe playing tournaments, Tae Joon enjoys driving his cars that he earned playing poker, teaching new players, collecting watches, learning English and reading books.

Tae Joon is focused on his personal goal of being the first Korean national to win a major title in 2009. You can play with Tae Joon only on PokerStars; his screen name is ‘skat tilt’.
