Mar 18, 2013 Development. The cast of eleven and their professional partners was announced 26 February 2013 on Good Morning America, with Jacoby Jones' participation confirmed two days earlier on 24 February during a network promo for the series airing during the 85th Oscars as a tease for the GMA announcement. Two weeks after the cast announcement, Sean Lowe was revealed as a twelfth.
Jimmy Cha (Korean: 차민수, Hanja: 車敏洙, born January 15, 1951), also known as Ch'a Min-su, is a South Koreanprofessionalgo and avid poker player. He is also a black belt in martial arts and a talented classical pianist.
Jimmy was born in Seoul, and grew up playing go and poker. He turned professional in 1974 and was the best player at Dongguk University when he attended. Along with these accolades, he was also the South Korean National Amateur Champion two times in a row.
The Hanguk Kiwon awarded him four dan for spreading go around the world in 1984, after he moved to the U.S. in 1975.
Cha has a nickname, 'eternal Mr. Quarter-Finalist', because in many professional tournaments he would usually lose in the quarterfinals. In 1989, he beat Yamashiro Hiroshi and Ohira Shuzo to advance to the quarterfinals of the Fujitsu Cup, only to lose. The next year, he made it to the quarterfinals of the Fujitsu Cup again after beating Cho Chikun. In March 2008, he defeated Imamura Toshiya 9P in the Chunlan Cup.
Today, he splits his time between go, poker, and managing businesses.
