Just a few months after he was legally allowed to play in Las Vegas poker rooms, Joe Cada announced his arrival to the poker world loud and clear. The young pro made the 2009 final table at the age of 21, with an opportunity to beat Peter Eastgate’s fresh record to become the youngest main-event champion in history.
Prior to his huge WSOP score, Cada had won Full Tilt’s $750,000 guarantee in January 2008 for $147,488, and followed it up with a win in the Sunday Mulligan for $49,590 in October of the same year.
Still, he considers himself a cash-game player rather than a tournament specialist.
