WPT North American Poker Championship Wrap-up

With over 500 entries this years WPT North American Poker Championship had quite the turn out. As I highlighted in previous post, the tournament was hosted at Fallsview Casino Resort in Niagara Falls, Ontario. And the action was just as great as the scenery. Being called one of the greatest final tables in WPT history the field narrowed down into these top players at the final showdown:

Seat No. 1: Kofi Farkye — 1,504,000
Seat No. 2: Jonathan Little — 2,616,000
Seat No. 3: Jeff "ActionJeff" Garza — 1,320,000
Seat No. 4: David Cloutier — 1,614,000
Seat No. 5: Barry Greenstein — 447,000
Seat No. 6: Scott "BigRiskky" Clements — 2,483,000

The talent ranged from two 19 year old Internet players to an amateur and an old poker pro. Also two former WPT champions battling it out for Card Player player of the year race. But in the end it Scott "BigRiskky" Clements who took home over one million dollars in prize money. This was no easy task as this event set the all time record for most hand played at a final table. A memorable event to say the least.
