Back-to-Back Titles in One Day? Say Watt?!
Much to nobody's surprise, Andrew Watt is already in the field and ready to compete to go back-to-back-to-back after winning two tournaments in one day yesterday.
The two-time World Cup of Cards champion, hailing from Alberta, started his day by taking down Event #5 $110 No Limit Hold'em Big Ante for $2,165 and then decided to late-register Event #6 $110 No Limit Hold'em Single Rebuy, taking that down for $3,885 just before sunrise.
Watt drove all the way out here from the West Coast to compete in the World Cup of Cards and has certainly made his mark early on. In addition to his two wins, he also booked a cash in the partypoker Grand Prix last week, collecting $800 for finishing in 359th place out of over 3,700 entries.
Although Watt's career earnings total just $27,290, he has an impressive four wins out of nine recorded cashes. His biggest win came just last month at the Pure Poker Summer Showdown in Edmonton after taking down the $440 Pot Limit Omaha event for $11,240.
Keep following along as we track Watt's progress through the rest of this series.
