2014 WSOP November Nine Profile: William Tonking
Back on July 14, the 2014 World Series of Poker Main Event final table was set. The players in this year's "November Nine" are set to resume play on November 10, and it is a globally diverse group of young players who will be battling it out for the $10 million top prize.
Just before the 2014 WSOP, William Tonking scored a $50,000 payday on WSOP.com in his home state of New Jersey. That $50,000 is a far cry from the $730,725 he's guaranteed for making the WSOP Main Event final table, but Tonking claims he was never much of a tournament player.
"I was never much of a tournament player," Tonking told PokerNews. "This is only the third one that I’ve played this year. I’m more of a cash-game player."
It sounds like the third time was the charm for Tonking, and this cash-game player will be looking to make more of a name for himself by taking down the "grand daddy of them all" for a massive $10 million.
