Joe Cada has made history in the poker world, and even though we had not heard from him before, for sure we will be getting more news about him for a long time.
The young player, from Shelby Township in Michigan, realized very soon that he was made to play poker and that is why he dropped college soon after he had started. And taking into consideration that he has just won the main poker tournament with only 21 years old, maybe he was right. With 21 years he has become the youngest player that won the WSOP, breaking the record established last year by Peter Eastgate that had won with 22 years old.
Before winning the bracelet in the main event, he had already won two cash prizes during the events 14 and 34 of the WSOP, winning $6.681 and $21.533 respectively.
We all wonder what more things will achieve this new poker ambassador and from here we sincerely congratulate him.

CADA BECOMES THE YOUNGEST PLAYER THAT WINS THE WSOP
The two survivors of the “November nine” played yesterday the final heads up in order to win the appreciated WSOP bracelet.
After more than 90 poker hands played, the young Joseph Cada managed to win, bringing home not only the famous bracelet, but also the big cash prize of £8.547.042.
Moon, who had previously recognized not having played too many heads up during the last years had to be content with the second position, and he also brought home a big prize of £5.182.601.
In that way, Cada has become the youngest player ever winning a WSOP tournament and with only 21 years old has won a title that many players are trying to win all their lives.
For sure, his triumph will be an inspiration to many other young players who also dream of becoming a poker star.
