One of the UK's well-known online casino poker rooms, 32Red Poker has crowned its Poker Master for 2005. The Poker Masters final event at 32 Red took was held last week on the 8th. Online casinos player Chris Hall (NoflopsHomer), only started playing at the casino a few short hours before the final event started, too.

That fact alone makes this online gambling event an interesting one. A purse of approximately $32,000, was to be divided between the top 15 poker players. Chris won top prize - $8,960 in cash, along with a trip to Vegas for a week.  About 161 players took part in the final event which ended late in the evening.

Chris said in an interview that he was in total shock that he even won the event in the first place. This just goes to show you that you could possibly win fast money playing poker at an online casino that you haven't even been a player at before. He wants to take his trip to Vegas in June during the WSOP event.
