A 24-year-old novice poker player from Alabama will join the world’s poker elite on the professional poker circuit after becoming the lucky winner of UltimateBet.com's online poker 'Be A Pro' package.
“The desire to play in some of the world's biggest live poker tournaments is what made me enter this tourney,” said the winning player (only identified as CK).”Now I get to play with the big guys. This is huge.”
As a result of coming first in the online poker tournament, CK has won seats in the WPT World Championship; the WSOP Main Event; Ultimate Bet's signature Aruba Poker Classic; WPT Bellagio 5 Diamond; WPT Tunica; and WPT LA Poker Classic and all the travel expenses he needs to get there.
The plucky player will also receive top notch training from poker's industry professionals to help him give his best shot in the big leagues.
