A very young player has got the solid attention of the online gambling community this week, as news of his remarkable profits continues to spread throughout the internet casino forums. The student from Vancouver, Canada has made a remarkable example of the sort of money that can be made with online poker, combining some skill, time, determination, and of course, luck. Though he still lives with his parents, and intends on continuing school, the 20-year old has managed to turn just $11 into more than three-quarters of a million, and the pile is still growing.

Fortunes are not easily made, as anyone knows, but the sheer fact that the young man has turned two digits into six is nonetheless astonishing. The fact that he managed to do most of the work in less than a week is unbelievable! The player, who uses the screen name XBlink, used his final $11 to buy-in to a No Limit Hold’Em poker tournament hosted by the online casino Ultimate Bet.com. He won, first place, turning his investment into $750 overnight. Within the next five days, he had built up quite a bankroll, summing to as much as $833,193 at his highest point.

As he went, XBlink summarized his progress to fellow posters on the online gambling forum twoplustwo. That’s not to say that he didn’t have his low points; in fact, he lost sums as much as $500 more than twenty times. Day three saw him turn his $750 into $4,000 and the following day, he quadrupled the value to $16,000. His game of choice seems to be pot limit Omaha, and all his claims of winning have been verified by Poker Table Ratings.com.
