The PokerNews Live Reporting Team is at the Horseshoe Baltimore to live report both the $1,700 Main Event and $3,250 High Roller; however, that is just one of more than a dozen gold ring events that have taken place over the past week.

In the $135 buy-in Ladies Event, 65-year-old retired nurse Dorothy Adams topped a 79-entry field to claim a gold ring and the $2,444 first-place prize.
Both she and her husband will continue looking for gold as they plan to travel to the upcoming Cherokee stop. In the past they’ve competed at WSOPC stops in Las Vegas and New Orleans.
