Winner Spends Money on Mother

It is every online casino players dream to be able to win big, but what would you do with the money if you actually won? James Sudsworth from Kent recently won GBP 25,000 at a Ladbrokes Poker event. His alias is James666 which proved to be very lucky for him as the 22 year old player keeps proving that he is a very skilled poker player, even at his young age. Sudsworth has won over GBP 200,000 at online casinos playing his favorite game of poker. He is even entered in the online casino’s Poker Million series which is set to take place in December. In that event the young poker player could win up to GBP 1 million. The online casino player has had a lot of luck but what makes him newsworthy is what he is doing with his winnings.

It is often the case when a person wins the lottery or a jackpot at an online casino that they go out and buy a home, travel, get a new car, etc. James666 is using a portion of his winnings to put his mother through school. She has been wanting to go through the Speech Pathologist program at her local university but has been unable to because of financial issues. Go ahead, “Awwww…” Sudsworth has proved time and time again that he is a smart player and is one of the many young professional players that are taking over tournaments in land based competitions and at online casinos. In Denmark there was a 22 year old player, Peter Eastlake, who won the World Series of Poker’s main event. He became the youngest person ever to win the main even and went home with a cool $9.1 million. His opponent, a 23 year old, went home with a little over $5 million.

Sudworth’s story is one that is not very conventional. He was studying at his local university for media studies. He dropped out of school to manage a bar which is where he was introduced to the game of poker. He had a natural talent for the game and continued playing but game himself monetary limits as he was starting off. If he were gambling at an online casino or playing poker with buddies he would set his spending cap at GBP 10. “I started around the GBP10 mark, which is cheaper than an average night out which at that time could easily cost around GBP30 - GBP40,” said Sudworth. As if all he’s done isn’t enough, he also invested some of his money into one of his friend’s short films which has been accepted into a screening that will air channel 4.
