Matt Salsberg
Matt Salsberg, Season XI WPT Player of the Year

It’s quite a feat to earn WPT Player of the Year honors; it indicates both skill and a nice year of running good. We’re happy to have five previous winners with us this weekend though missing current POY Anthony Zinno.

Season VIII: Faraz Jaka
Season IX: Andy Frankenberger
Season X: Joe Serock
Season XI: Matt Salsberg
Season XII: Mukul Pahuja (bagged chips last night)

Those five players have combined for more than $16.8 million in career earnings and a trophy case full of awards.

If you want to do some association, we also have Erica Lindgren in the field today, wife of Season II Erick Lindgren.
