Andrew Cohen is from Las Vegas and he entered the 2009 WSOP for casino employees. He works at The Palms Casino.

The tournament started Wednesday, May 27th at 12:06 and ended Friday, May 29th at 1:52 am.

His dream was to win the gold bracelet. He really didn’t care about the money as much, as he is a bartender. He said he can always make money as a bartender, but he always wanted the bracelet.

Well his dream came through. He won the WSOP. He loves to play poker and he regularly plays in the poker tournaments in Vegas.

During his interview, he had to stop several times to collect himself as he was very emotional. After he won, he called his wife and told her that he had won. All she could do was cry. She was very happy for her husband. All he wanted was the gold bracelet and she was very excited he got it.

All together he won $83,833 and the WSOP gold bracelet.

Right on Andrew!

It's good to see the man's dreams come true, especially while playing poker.

I wonder if he has an automatic seat in the 2009 WSOP main event?
He could go for another bracelet if he does get a seat.

I would love to make it to the WSOP main event final table just once.
