A 65-year-old New Hope, Penn., radiologist won $230,626 and the 2016 World Series of Poker Super Seniors No-Limit Hold’em Championship title on Tuesday.
James Moore was elated to win his first WSOP bracelet after outlasting a field of 1,476 players, all of whom were 65 or older.
"This is an unbelievable thrill for me,” Moore said. "It's every poker player’s dream, and mine just came true.”
This was the second time the WSOP ran a $1,000 Super Seniors No-Limit Hold’em Championship event, open only to players ages 65 and up, with the inaugural event running in 2015.
