Neil Channing Wins WSOP Package




On Sunday night, 2008 Irish Open Champion Neil Channing proved his worth at the cyber felt by securing his ticket to Vegas and winning a WSOP package worth $13,000.

Not only will he now get to play the $10,000 Main Event, but he'll also receive flights, spending money and seven nights accommodation at the exquisite Wynn Casino. Any of Vegas' 'temptations' will have to come from his own pocket.

Channing was one of 39 in iPoker's weekly $500+25 qualifier, which also included Blue Belt Jamie Burland and former League winner Bob Bulman, the latter of whom retrieved his buy-in in eighth.

The victory comes less than a week away from the next Black Belt Poker Academy: WSOP: Winning Your Seat & Surviving Vegas, which takes place on Saturday, May 26 at Aspers Casino, Stratford.

If you would like to pick his brains and find out exactly how he won his seat, then grab a ticket now by emailing training@blackbeltpoker.com. Alternatively, you can purchase a seat through the Black Belt Poker Store.
Joining Neil will be Jamie Burland and Alex Rousso, both of whom have extensive experience in playing the WSOP Main Event and its many qualifiers.

"I'd already had a crack at few of these," revealed Channing, "but with the Academy just around the corner, I thought I'd better go ahead and win one.

"We're hosting a number of great satellites at the moment with packages to suit everyone, so hopefully this Saturday I can help others win their seat and join me in Vegas."

Channing isn't the only Black Belt Poker player who'll be playing the Series for a cut-price. In the very first satellite, Green Belt Chris Nicol won a package for just $66 and will now be vying for millions of dollars in the Main Event.
