The November Nine of the WSOP came down to two players Joshua Beckley and Joseph McKeehen. It was won by McKeehen who held a sizeable lead throughout the tourney. He was not favored to win since rarely is the chip leader going into the WSOP Final Table has come the winner. The only one in recent history is Jonathan Duhamel in 2008. But McKeehen powered through opponents like a game of dominoes taking down player after player and going home with $7.7 million dollars.
In a video interview from Cardplayer, he states he isn't going to be playing as much he was. He doesn't need to now . He's the poker king for the next couple of years. He can do coaching or play against high rollers in Vegas. I was surprised to learn about very wealthy people looking to play high stakes poker in Vegas with Phil Ivey , Dan Negreanu, Rick Salomon and the likes. These stakes are high , into the tens of millions of dollars. And McKeehen can do endorsements as well. Joshua Beckley is allready endorsing America's Cardroom. I don't know how much he's getting but it must be good!
