While PokerNews is here offering live updates for the $1,100 Main Event, we’d be remiss if we didn’t tell you about some of the side events that have taken place out over the past week for the Winter Poker Classic here at Running Aces Casino.
In Event #6: $250 PLO, 108 runners created a $21,600 prize pool that was paid out to the top 12 players.
Among those to cash but fall short of the final table were Thomas Nguyen (10th - $454), James Erickson (11th - $454), and Dale McDonough (12th - $454).
In the end, it was Doug Tran who collected every chip in play to capture the MSPT Winter Poker Classic Trophy, along with a $6,479.
