Andrew Lichtenberger Crowned Caesars Palace Champion |
|
Friday, April 30, 2010 Las Vegas, NV--Andrew Lichtenberger is one of poker's least-known millionaires. The 22-year-old professional player from East Northport, NY has already amassed in excess of $1.1 million in tournament winnings in what has been a strikingly brief poker career. He burst upon the live tournament scene about midway through last year's World Series of Poker, where he finished in second place, just a whisker away from winning a gold bracelet in the $5,000 buy-in Shootout event. A few weeks later, Lichtenberger proved once and for all he is an up-and-coming player to watch when he finished 18th in the WSOP Main Event. The four-week run, which included five WSOP cashes, netted a nice profit of about $700,000. Not bad for a month of poker playing. |

Tuesday, November 10, 2009 By Isaac Kuhlman In what can be considered one of the biggest comebacks in the World Series of Poker's Main Event final table's history, Joe Cada of Shelby Township, Michigan became the youngest player to win the Main Event by overcoming a 25 to 1 chip count deficit in day one to grab the chip lead going into day two. As the proceedings for the heads up commenced, Cada had Darvin Moon outstacked about 2 to 1 in chips. Moon was the overwhelming chip leader at the start of the November 9, but suffered two big losses on day 1. Cada said of being down on day one, "I was not worried. You can't stress out when that happens. You just have to continue to play your best poker." And that's what Joe Cada did. |
