When it comes to US-based online poker pros, you’d be hard pressed to find one more talented and accomplished than Yong “LuckySpewy1” Kwon, who goes by “YK” was recently named the 2020 WSOP.com Player of the Year.
The 31-year-old Kwon, who plays from New Jersey, collected $10,000 in cash and an exclusive WSOP.com Player of the Year ring for accomplishing the feat.
“I'm well known for the hours/grind I put in online, so it's nice to get recognition for what I do. However, the WSOP.com POY title wasn't something I strived for,” YK told PokerNews.
