According to the US "Overseas Chinese Newspaper" report, recently, Henry Lu, a 22-year-old Chinese man living in Bincheng Market, New York, won the championship of a world-class poker competition in Las Vegas and took home an attractive bonus of 650,000 yuan, which amazed the industry.
According to English media reports, the event that brought Henry Lu both fame and fortune is called the "World Series of Poker Tournament" and it just concluded in Las Vegas recently.
It is recognized by the industry that Henry Lu’s victory this time was no accident, and the process was not smooth sailing. He was selected after beating a total of about 3,000 competitors, including some well-known card dealers. In the finals against the wily British Poker Champion, 45-year-old Neil Channing, Henry Lu's points dropped to just 1 point away from being eliminated, but he made an incredible comeback and achieved a shocking reversal.
Henry Lu told the New York Daily News after winning that winning this championship is the pinnacle of every poker player's career. And it is even more wonderful to be able to realize this dream while I am still young.
Henry Lu started to like playing cards when he was a student at Midwood High School. Later, when he entered Syracuse University (Syracuse University) and majored in biology, his poker skills began to improve by leaps and bounds. Apparently, he was an average biology major but became a master at online poker. Everyone who saw him play said he was incredibly good.
But he still managed to graduate from Syracuse University and then moved from New York to Toronto, Canada, because all online poker games in the latter are completely legal, including those involving money. Currently, Henry Lu spends half of his time in Toronto and the other half in Benson Street, New York, the place where he was born and raised.
