: 300/600, 600 ante
PokerNews is in town to live report the $1,700 Main Event here at the World Series of Poker Circuit IP Biloxi, but that is just one of the gold ring events that will have played out by the end of the series.
In Event #9: $600 No-Limit Hold’em, 145 runners created a $74,675 prize pool that was paid out to the top 23 players. Among those to cash but fall short of making the final table were Jerry Giroir (10th - $1,322), Melisa Singh (12th - $1,322), Hamid Izadi (14th - $1,137), Burnie Burns (21st - $924), and David Prociak (23rd - $438).
After Daniel Lowery busted in third for $8,530, the title came down to Alabama’s Corey Harrison and Louisiana’s Charles Brady, who won Event #3 at the stop. The former, a 42-year-old college professor, ultimately prevailed to win the tournament for $20,027 and his first ring.
“It feels great, I’ve actually been to a few final tables but the cards actually fell my way today, so I was able to make it through. It feels good to finally make it over the top,” said Harrison.
On his match with Brady, Harrison offered the following: “I was behind quite a bit, but I was pretty patient, and I made a couple of big hands, when he actually had hands. He doubled me up twice. One time he had ace-deuce, I had ace-eight, so that worked out well, and another time we played a really big pot when I turned the nut straight and he had two pair. That was the hand where I got most of my chips.”
