Daniel Kelly won over a million dollars at the $25,000 six-handed no-limit hold 'em event at this year's World Series of Poker and that qualified him to become part of the Doyle Brunson 10.
"It's a mixture of being shocked and excited," Kelly said after his win. "I definitely thought I could win, or I wouldn't be playing. But you can't expect to win a tournament, even if you play perfect. This definitely exceeds my expectations."
David Sands, who Gambling911.com has reported is a spitting image of murder suspect Joran van der Sloot (also a poker player), had sat atop the leaderboard earlier in the week but ultimately failed to make the cut.
Dan Kelly is a 20 year old poker player hailing from Potomac, MD, and is one of the biggest online poker players in the world. His live tournament wins to date, however, were a mere $48,542 before this weekend's WSOP success.
Kelly will now represent DoylesRoom.com, one of the most recognized names in online poker and a part of the Gambling911.com stable of online poker sponsors that includes Doyles poker network Cake Poker.
