Jeff LisandroCurrently living in Salerno, Italy Jeff Lisandro is an Australian born professional poker player. Known as the iceman or as the comet, Lisandro is known to be a cash game expert, but has also become known on the poker tournament circuit. Unlike most professional poker players, Jeff Lisandro didn't take lessons as a young man or adult from a poker tutor, instead he learned the game from his mother at the tender age of five!Jeff Lisandro made his first table appearance in 1997 at a World Series of Poker event. He played the $3,000 limit hold'em event and has made four different World Series of Poker final tables since that first appearance. Though Lisandro is not seen as often as some other professionals, he has done quite well for himself.

Some of Lisandro's career highlights include a $25,000 limit hold'em heads up tournament in which he brought home just under $200,000 for the grand prize, in 2004. The next year in 2005 Lisandro won a $10,000 no limit hold'em World Series of Poker circuit event at Lake Tahoe in which he won $542, 360. This is the win that Lisandro is most proud of as he considers the man that he played with at this game, Phil Ivey, the best poker player in the world.
