The World Poker Tour prides itself on its rich history, the prestige of its tournaments and the stories of its winners. Well, another story has just been written after Daniel Smyth turned a $33 WPT satellite into a $428,391 payday.
Smyth defeated a field of 1,038 players to win the WPT World Online Championships Event #5: $3,200 Knockout Championship, seeing off competition from the likes of WPT Champion Ryan Riess and eventual runner-up Manig Loeser.
The Irishman wasn't the only player to emerge with a huge score from very little investment. Brazil's Joao Maureli won his seat for free in the WPT Ticket Drop promotion, and he turned that into over $174,000 for his third-place finish.

Final Table Recap
Brazil's Joao Maureli was the chip leader to start the final table and it took half an hour before the first elimination of the day, with Matheus Resende's queens falling to fellow Brazilian Maureli's ace-king.
Pedro Marques had doubled with aces through Ryan Riess' ace-king to stay alive, and he then sent Shyngis Satubayev to the rail.
Smyth had been sitting in a comfortable position, but was left with ten big blinds after Pim Gieles doubled through him. However, Smyth would double through Artur Martirosian before sending the last WPT Champion Ryan Riess out in sixth.
Moments later, Martirosian crashed out at the hands of Pedro Marques before Smyth secured yet another double to remain afloat. Marques and Gieles fell to bring play to three-handed with start-of-day chip leader Maureli having fallen to bottom spot behind Smyth and chip leader Loeser.
Maureli was eliminated by Smyth, who closed the gap to Loeser ahead of heads-up play, but was still behind.
