After 12 hours of play, Benjamin Stone came back from a huge deficit heads up against two-time World Series of Poker Circuit champion Daniel Pearlman. Stone won Event #5: $400 No-Limit Hold’em for $34,723, his first ring and a seat into the Tournament of Champions.
Stone only began playing live poker in February at Harrah’s Cherokee, and mostly played online and home games before that. “I didn’t think it could happen but tough playin’ and a little bit of run good always helps,” smiled Stone. “I played it (poker) at a young age and grew to love it.” This was his first ever tournament cash and turned out to be his first win at the same time. “I used to watch WSOP on TV, and those were bracelets, and this is a ring, but it means just as much to me. I pictured myself doing the same thing and here I am. It’s amazing,” said a proud Stone.
