$10,000 WPT Package Win

Finally had a bit of luck and won a $10,000 WPT package after a hard fought tournament on the World Poker Tour online poker room.

I lost half my stack early on after I open raised with AK got one caller behind me and my C-Bet on the A95 flop was min raised. I put him on a set or A9 straight away but after the turn was checked (5) and the river was another 9 I fired out a blocking bet. The guy raised though and I knew the only hand a could beat was AQ, still, with big pot odds I made the call after I told him I thought he had quads. Sure enough he took the pot with quad 9s!

I got my revenge by busting him at the final table though and I then went on to win it:

Haven't decided which event I will use the buy-in for yet but I am looking forward to playing my first WPT event. Another $10,000 seat will be given away at the end of April and you can qualify for the final by playing on the WorldPokerTour.com!
