  MIAMI, FL, Jun 24 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Just a few weeks into joining UltimateBet's Team UB, Brandon Cantu is
catapulting the leading online poker site's team of pros into the
spotlight once again thanks to his final table appearance in Event #39 at
the World Series of Poker.

    For his second place finish in the $1,500 No Limit Hold'em event that
featured 2,715 players, Cantu earned $403,951, one of his biggest paydays
since he started his illustrious poker career. By comparison, Cantu's 20th
place finish in last year's Main Event earned him $257,334.

    Cantu's biggest victory came in March of 2008 with a $1 million payday for
dominating the WPT Shooting Star Championship Event 2. The poker world
will be watching Cantu closely in this year's Main Event where he is
expected to dominate a field of thousands.
