On April 12th of 2008 World Poker Tour Amateur Poker League (WPTAPL) welcomed the WPT partners and pro’s, including “Cowboy” Kenna James, and Nick Brancato, as they hosted their National Championship event to crown the 2007 WPTAPL National Champion.
Although attendance suffered from the 1,000’s of airline flights cancelled that weekend WPTAPL welcomed approximately 400 guests at the International Plaza Resort and Spa in Orlando, FL. This included the invitees, plus their friends and family who came to support them. The event awarded over $30,000 in prizes including a $10,000 seat to a WPT event for 1st place.
Edward Randall Spears, a Richland Hills, TX police officer of 6 years, defeated 254 players to claim the title of WPTAPL’s 2007 National Champion and brought the trophy back to Region 535 in Texas. “I was overwhelmed when I walked in and saw so many tables and so many people,” stated Randall.
