British
Player Wins $220,000 in His First Tournament Ever at
Titan Poker
Luke Cahill, who previously only played cash games at
popular online poker room Titan Poker, took first prize
in the European Championship of Online Poker's $1,000,000
Guaranteed Prize Main Event.
Luke
Cahill from Manchester, England, captured first place
and a $220,000 prize last week at the European Championship
of Online Poker's $1,000,000 GP Main Event (ECOOP) staged
by Titan
Poker, the largest online poker room on the iPoker
Network.
Cahill
defeated a field of 992 players competing in the $1000+$60
Texas Hold'em No Limit Freezeout tournament, which was
the climax of the ten-day ECOOP series. The ECOOP tournaments
awarded more than $2,500,000 in total prizes. "I was
awake all night," Cahill said, shortly after he won
the last hand at the twelve-hour-long online poker tournament.
"I wasn't as tired as I should have been towards the
end."
Amazingly,
Cahill had never previously played a tournament at Titan
Poker, having only played cash games. "Recently I decided
to try playing tournaments," Cahill said. "I only heard
about the ECOOP Main Event the day before," he admitted.
Cahill now promises to devote more time to Titan Poker
tournaments and possibly to win a satellite seat to
represent the poker room at a major mainland poker event.
"I've played only one live tournament before, and busted
out on the first day," Cahill said.
He
says his online success can be attributed to "knowing
which cards to start with, waiting for the good hands,
and playing those." "I play a few hours at a time,"
Cahill says of his online poker activity. "I play until
bored, unless it's a tournament, when I can play for
twelve hours straight."
The
highly successful European Championship of Online Poker
is just the latest of a long string of innovative promotions
run by Titan Poker. Titan Poker just staged its $1,000,000
Guaranteed Prize "Tournament Titan", the day before
the ECOOP Main Event. Titan Poker regularly awards its
players with seats at the world's most well-known poker
tournaments, such as the World Series of Poker in Las
Vegas, various European Poker Tour events and the upcoming
Aussie Millions and Irish Open Tournaments.
