Sam Morris

Sam “Bones” Morris, a 32-year-old assembly worker at Ford Motor Company, made his first-ever tournament cash-in a big one as he took first place in $500 limit hold’em, the second event in the WSOP Circuit at Caesars Indiana. The victory for the Leitchfield, Kentucky resident was worth $26,240. Bones (the nickname he got growing up as a beanpole) gave his wife credit for the win. “I was down to the felt twice the first night,” he said. “But she told me not to worry and just have a good time, and that gave me a good attitude.”

He normally plays $10-$20 cash games and began playing in family 7-stud games at age 13. He said he plans to set aside some of his prize money and take a shot at next year’s World Series of Poker.
