With a safe river card firmly on the felt, Joseph Cada leaped into the air in celebration but quickly separated himself from his throng of supporters to shake Darvin Moon’s hand.
The crowd continued to chant “Joey! Joey! Joey!” as Jeffrey Pollack introduced the new, youngest Main Event champion in poker history to the crowd.
Cada took the mic and shook off a tear or two before thanking his legion of friends, family and fans in the audience. With that, he hoisted the bracelet over his head, much to the delight of everyone in the theater.
Congratulations to Joseph Cada, 2009 World Series of Poker Main Event Champion! He takes home $8,546,435.
