Who would guess that playing a WoW game is lucrative? William Postlewaite a.k.a. Billy P. thanks his lucky star when he won $50,000 just for playing the WoW Trading Card Game (TCG) very, very well.
Postlethwait won the World of Warcraft’s Trading Card Game world championships early this month. And while he’s won $4,000 or $5,000 from other card games, the $50,000 bounty and glass trophy were the best he’s ever done playing cards.
There may not be loads of information on the actual mechanics behind Billy P.’s win but it is interesting to get to know the player himself. All we know is he works in a game store while going to school to learn finance. He also spent about two months of testing deck of cards with a friend before he found the one that he thought could all the way. What does he plan to do with all of his winnings? He is planning to buy a house. It is good to know that wild sum of money won by card game players are well spent.
