I remember back in junior high, I used to make fun of those guys with their “Magic – The Gathering” cards, who played throughout lunch in the cafeteria. After learning about poker pro David Williams, I wish I had joined them instead of mocking them. Williams, who is now a World Series of Poker bracelet winner and Team Bodog Pro, progressed from Magic cards to real cards and poker.

Williams is probably best-known for finishing as runner-up to Greg Raymer in the 2004 WSOP main event. Williams may not have earned the title as world champion that year, but he still cashed out with a hefty $3.5 million. He won his first WSOP bracelet two years later in the $1,500 Seven Card Stud event and he has also made it to three final tables on the WPT.

At only 25 years old, Williams – one of the WPT’s “Young Guns” of poker – has plenty of time to add to his growing list of poker accomplishments and to add to his bankroll, which already exceeds $5 million in tournament winnings alone.
