An Owais in the Desert

Level 2 : 75/150, 25 ante

We just found one Owais Ahmed, a member of the most recent class of Bracelet Winners.

Last summer, Ahmed put on quite a show in the $2,500 Omaha/Stud Hi/Lo event. His fourth cash of the summer culminated in his first tournament win, a gold bracelet, and a quarter-million dollar bonus. In return, he gave us a couple of the more memorable winners' photos of the year:



Ahmed wasn't done bracelet hunting, though. He took a hefty $50,000 chunk out of his new spending money and bought into the Poker Players Championship just days later. Riding quite the rush, Ahmed quickly proved that his mixed-game success was no fluke, picking his way through one of the toughest WSOP fields ever assembled to find himself at another final table. He outlasted everyone except three men, adding another almost half-million dollars to his pockets.

One year later, we find Ahmed back at it again, and those who've been paying attention might grant a little more respect this time around.
