Joe Cada, the youngest member of this year’s World Series of Poker Main Event “November 9” continued his incredible month this past Sunday while reaching the final table of UltimateBet‘s $500 buy-in $100K Guaranteed tournament. While his 5th place finish at the final table yesterday was not much in comparison to the over $1.2 million he has already been paid for reaching the Main Event final table; $9,268 remains a good chunk of cash and the final table experience may be worth quite a bit more come November.
Cada, who plays online under the name jcada99, had experienced a great deal of success prior to this month but has exploded onto the poker scene in spectacular fashion throughout July. After surviving over a week’s exhausting play in the WSOP Main Event, Cada was back grinding on the internet just a few days later. On July 19th, just 4 days after play concluded at the World Series he finished second in the Full Tilt Poker $150 rebuy tournament for an impressive $45,221.
Due to some daunting chip stacks at the Main Event final table, Cada may not be the favorite to take home the prized bracelet, however, it is clear that he intends to gain as much experience and knowledge as he can before he sits down this fall to play for the $8.5 million first prize.
