The most recent stop for the Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT) before coming to The Venetian Resort was at Bally’s Black Hawk Casino in Colorado.

The $1,110 Main Event wrapped up on January 30, and Denver’s Billyray Gallegos took home the top prize of $104,890 following a three-way deal made with Ronald Scott ($93,369) and Brady Bullard ($81,347).

Gallegos defeated a field of 683 entrants to claim the victory. He had just $7,283 in career tournament earnings before the win, making the tournament one to remember.
