BLACK IS WILL HILL'S TOP PLAYER
Irishman is this month's winner
Irish poker whiz Andy Black is the latest recipient of the coveted William HillPoker European rankings (powered by Poker in Europe) player of the month award.
His fantastic 5th place finish in this years $10,000 buy in at the World Series of Poker main event, earned Black over $1.7 million in prize money and was voted the outstanding performance in an exceptional month for European poker.
Andy played his way through a field of over 5600 players to take his share of the historic $56 million prize pool. His $1.7 million prize is the biggest single cash in WSOP history by a European player.
Phil Quayle, Poker Room Manager at williamhillpoker.com said, "Andy's performance in the main event was an outstanding one, with a little more luck in some of the crucial pots at the final table, and European poker could have been celebrating its latest and greatest bracelet winner. This made Andy a deserving winner of the WilliamHillpoker.com European Rankings Player of the Month Award."
