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. As such, we thought we’d profile some of the preliminary tournaments and those who struck it big.
In Event #5: $400 No-Limit Hold’em 6-Handed, 101 runners created a $33,330 prize pool that was paid out to the top 16 players. Among those to cash but fall short of the final table were An Huang (10th - $869), Justin Liberto (13th - $586), John Gorsuch (14th - $586), and Richard Cresiski (16th - $586).
In the end, WSOP bracelet winner Michael Wang bested Anthony Robert in heads-up play to win the title, $9,522 in prize money, and his first gold ring. The 31-year-old poker pro from New Jersey previously won the 2015 WSOP Event #2: $5,000 NLH for $466,120.
