The Ambassadors Bounty kicked off on the first day of the series. Players had the opportunity to knock out players and win prizes that ranged from $50 in Rungood Store Credit to $1,000 in cash. Some of the ambassador bounties in the tournament included Conrad Simpson, Corey Paggeot, Jules Cornelius, Jamie Kerstetter, and Joe Stapleton.
44 players entered the tournament which created a prizepool of $8,800 to spread out between the final seven players. After a late night, it came down to Anthony Reeser and Keegan Ceccarelli. The heads up match saw a swingy battle with many lead changes, but as the dust settled it was Ceccarelli who took home the title.
Taking down his first title and first live cash, Ceccarelli’s day was capped off with a ring that he fought for and wanted for a long time. He looks to return to work on the weekend here in the casino.
