WPTDS SEASON 1 PLAYER OF THE YEARRyan Smith had a very successful run starting in Edmonton, Canada. He was crowned the Champion in the $1,500 NL Main Event at Casino Yellowhead after defeating Josh Steeper for the title, earning himself over $79,000. He then made his way west to Ocean’s Eleven Casino in California for the last WPTDeepStacks stop of the season. He was 4th on the POY list with Fraser Short first on the lea-derboard. Fraser Short was unable to attend the last series being only 20 years old. Second on the leaderboard was Jonathan Sanborn, who made his way to San Diego hunting for the Player of the Year title. After elimination before the money, Ryan Smith was climbing the leaderboard. Finishing 44th in the $1,100 Main event surpassing Sanborn and Short, gaining the title with 101.72 points.

As a reward, Ryan will receive a seat into the 2015 WPT© World Champion-ship as well as a 2015 WPTDeepStacks Sponsorship package including: A $5,000 package that can be used towards WPTDeepStacks buy-ins, hotel & airfare accommodations, a spotlight feature on WPTDeepStacks.com and offi-cial WPTDeepStacks gear.
