The online pros keep winning bracelets in the 2009 WSOP. Anthony Harb took home Event 11, $2,000 No-Limit Hold'em and $569,254 in prize money.
The 28-year-old from Canton, Michigan has been successful in online tournaments and plays poker professionally, but this was his first win at the WSOP.
"The gold bracelet means a lot. It means I am here to stay. I made it through this very tough field, against all these pros. I can say that I hung with the best of the best," Harb said after the tournament.

Harb revealed that he usually comes to the WSOP every year on a one-way ticket, since he rarely knows when he will return home. He stays with a group of friends in a rented house.
"I play with a lot of good people and have my friends around me which means I can only get better."
