21-year Old Wins World Series Of Poker – In a huge upset, a 21-year old poker player won $8.5 million in the 2009 World Series Of Poker.
Earlier this year, 21-year old Joe Cada couldn’t legally gamble in Las Vegas—but early this morning, Cada was crowned the youngest-ever winner of the World Series of Poker in Sin City.
“It’s a dream come true,” Cada, who won $8.5 million, tells the Sun. Pocket nines won it for him; he put opponent Darvin Moon all in on a queen-jack hand.
Darvin Moon, left, and Joe Cada, were the last two remaining players in the World Series of Poker Texas Hold ‘em main event, held at the Rio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas on Sunday, Nov. 8, 2009.
“He’s a great player,” says Moon, a logger whose own Cinderella run ended with a $5.2 million consolation prize. “He outplayed me two hands.”
And that’s the buzz on 21-year Old Wins World Series Of Poker.
