Just seen this too, totally shocked. I was chatting to him on the phone recently and know how excited and honoured he was to be chosen as captain for the champs team.

A lovely man and the world is a sadder place without him. RIP Vaino x

Tangled aplenty with Vaino throughout the Vegas leagues, the odd cash tour and PLO side too. A challenging opponent, and a lovely fella to boot. RIP.

I didn"t know Vaino, I"d never met him, but spoke to him regarding the APAT team selections and it was immediately obvious he was a gentleman and a gentle one at that. RIP Vaino and condolences to family & friends

How sad... I never met him but even as a virtual friend he was always polite in the APAT tournies..
A big loss to the APAT and wider poker community.
