A new face will be gracing the covers of poker and gaming magazines the world over for the next few months - Steve Paul Ambrose, the 22 year old College boy from Waterloo, Ontario





This shy, self-effacing lad survived a $4 million humiliation at the hands of David Singer to go on and take one of the biggest paydays he (or anyone else, for that matter) can realistically hope for.


No plans yet on what he'll do with his $1.36 million prize money, though a holiday must surely be high up on his list.


I'd recommend The Bahamas - nothing but great memories for the man here.


He's a face now and, according to Greg Rayner (2004 World Champion) that has its ups and downs. Nobody will play him the same way again and its generally accepted that he's going to have to make a few changes to his game before he wins his next major.


We'll see.
