Adam Teasdale topped a 616-entrant field in the $1,675 buy-in World Series of Poker Circuit Atlantic City main event at the Harrah’s Resort Atlantic City, earning his first gold ring, 840 Card Player Player of the Year points and $194,000.
Teasdale’s dedicated the win to his later father, who passed away around a year ago.
“This is absolutely going out to him and the rest of my family,” said Teasdale. “I told them that I could do it and this is just a start to a new beginning for me.”
This is the aspiring poker pro from Wisconsin’s largest tournament score to date. He defeated Wade Woelfel heads-up to secure the title, sending the Minnesota native to the rail with $120,018 for his runner-up performance.
“(It feels) absolutely amazing,” Teasdale said. “I moved to North Carolina and that’s where I discovered this awesome game that’s hopefully going to change my life. I’m off to a good start.”
