David Woo Wins 2008 WSOP Event #39
David Woo came to the final table in the middle of the pack then built on hios stacks until he was atop the leader board. He never relinquished the chip lead and continued to build his chip advantage until the final river card of the final hand gave him the win, the cash and the coveted WSOP gold bracelet. David is from South Korea and now makes his home in Atlantic Georgia. He has had three previous cashes in the WSOP during his four years of playing in the tournament with his best being a fifth place finish in a 2007 $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em event.
David Woo takes away the coveted WSOP gold bracelet and $631,656 in cash for his win. Matt Wood received $389,844 for his second place effort while Eric Beren collects $278,460 for hanging on to third place. All of the top three receive a nice return for the $1,500 investment they placed only three days ago.
Congratulations to David Woo for topping the field of 2720 players to take the gold.
