Welcome To WSOP-C Harrah's Rincon!

Good morning everyone! Welcome to sunny Southern California, where we are bringing you the next installment of the WSOP Circuit Series! Today we are coming to you from just outside of San Diego, as we are at the Harrah's Rincon Resort! The main event is scheduled to get underway in just over 30 minutes, and we are excited to bring you all of the action!

Last year, this event drew 188 players, with Seneca Easley topping all of them to claim a first place prize of $70,384. Easley had quite the dominating performance, as he was both the chip leader at the end of day 1 with 36 players left, as well as the end of day 2, where they decided the final table. 21 players cashed in last year's event, including Garry Gates, who finished 4th in the Atlantic City Main Event just two weeks ago, Eddy Sabat, and Alex Masek, who finished runner up to Freddy Deeb at the Bicycle Casino Circuit event earlier this year.

We will be playing two day 1 flights today, with the first one starting at noon. Play will conclude at 6, with more players filing in after for Day 1b. The survivors of both flights will come back tomorrow to play day 2, and we will have a winner by Monday! We are looking forward to bringing you all of the action. Stay tuned to Pokernews for continuing coverage all day long!
