Kevin Stammen lives and breathes poker. Now the 23-year-old poker pro from Celina, Ohio has won his first WSOP bracelet, in Event 13, $2,500 No-Limit Hold'em. Stammen collected $506,786 for first place.
Despite his young age, Stammen is a very experienced poker player.
"I've always been a poker player. Ever since I was like 15 or 16, I played poker in the clubs in Ohio. I used to play in some of the small tournaments they had when I was younger," Stammen said.
Stammen performed the 2008 WSOP, but didn't manage to make it all the way in any tournament.
"It's good to have a bracelet. Last year I came out here and cashed four times. I got close a few times. But I took a few beats. This (win) sure makes up for it."
