Online Poker Room Turns Amateur Into A Pro For A Year
Pokerroom.com's incredibly successful promotion, whereby one lucky online poker pro becomes a sponsored poker pro for an entire year, has come to an end with Jim Davenport declared the winner! Davenport can now spend the year playing in no limit poker tournaments around the world courtesy of Pokeroom!
Davenport is an analyst at an investment bank, and now one of the world's biggest online poker rooms has made a substantial investment in his poker skills. The amateur will receive free entry into no less than 12 major poker tournaments over the course of the next twelve months, including a seat at the big one: the 2006 World Series Of Poker Main Event!
He also gets to take home $60,000 in cold hard cash, and his expenses will also be covered as he flies around the globe tasting life as a professional poker player.
Davenport beat out 68 other players who all qualified for the tournament by winning satellite events on pokeroom.com. He trailed heads-up by a large margin but fought back to win it all with AQ, proof positive that he was destined by fate to take it all, since it is well known that no one ever wins holding AQ!
