2009 retrospective: A very good result for the English poker
It is undeniable that 2009 have been a very good year for the French poker, but the results of poker players of the Hexagon was not the only excellent performance of the last year, that of the English poker were also very acceptable. The United Kingdom is a true nursery of talented poker players if we just take the example of the genius player of poker online like Chris Moorman or James Akenhead. At the head of the best English players, there is James Akenhead, he is the English revelation of the 2009 season. Last year, he were qualified to two final tables in the two most important tournaments of poker of the planet: the Main Event of the World Series of Poker (WSOP) and the World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE) during which, this young 27 years old Englishman had won 1,373,289$.
After James Akenhead, we can see John-Paul Kelly who carried out a double qualifying at the WSOP/WSOPE, the first in Las Vegas in the $1,500 Pot Limit Hold' Em and the second in the English capital during the inaugural tournament of the WSOP Europe of 1,000£. There is also John Eames who was very discrete in 2009 in spite of many performances; we can talk about his final table in a great tournament like the English Poker Open or the Deepstack Poker Championships. During 2009, Chris Moorman had always made speak about him in the world of online poker near the bad boys of English poker who, in spite of his many errors obtains a very good result.
