ODESSA, TX – For the second straight year, Jeremy
Symington, a former St. Lawrence standout, is sitting at the World
Series of Poker.
The Jackalopes’ goaltender won the seat online after playing
a series of online preliminary games before winning the final
online tournament to secure his seat in the main event.
“Well I’m definitely excited about things,” said
Symington. “Last year went well for me when I competed in it
and I’m looking forward to this year. I have a little more
experience having been there last year.”
In last year’s main event, Symington finished 584th out of
the 6,844 players that entered and collected $23,160 in winnings.
Symington is currently in Las Vegas competing in smaller
tournaments in the WSOP Circuit as he waits for the opening round
of the main event to begin on Friday, July 3rd.
“The opening round is stretched over a couple days. I
don’t know which day I’m playing yet, but I’m
excited to get started.”
“Day One” of the WSOP Main Event begins on Friday and
concludes on Monday, July 6th.
