Wednesday 29th November 2006 Jody Trainer wins first place in Limit Hold'em Tourney
British Columbia native Jody Trainer has cashed in at Western Canada’s biggest poker tournament winning $130,000 –his biggest pot to date.
Trainer won the Limit Hold'em tournament at the B.C. Poker Championships held at River Rock Casino in Richmond, British Columbia on November 21.
'It's an awesome feeling to win at my home casino,' said Trainer. 'This is one of Canada's biggest poker events and nothing beats playing among the country's best and coming out on top.'
A heavy-duty equipment operator by day, Trainer has won two major poker tournaments since turning professional in 2006. He started playing poker when he was six years old but got serious about poker in 2006 after finishing third out of 1,000 online players in the Paradise Poker Masters tournament in May.
Since then Jody has played in the World Series of Poker, finished first at the 2006 Orleans Open in Las Vegas and played in the World Poker Tour's North American Poker Championship in Niagara Falls.
