The PokerNews Live Reporting Team is at Florida’s Seminole Coconut Creek to live report action from both the $2,200 High Roller and $1,700 Main Event, but is just one of a dozen gold ring events at the stop. As such, we thought we’d profile some of the preliminary tournaments and those who struck it big.
In Event #1: $400 No-Limit Hold’em (One-Day), 199 entrants created a $65,670 prize pool that was paid out to the top 30 players. Among those to cash but fall short of the final table were Martin Ryan (11th - $1,090), Paul Balzano (13th - $916), Eric Brewster (21st - $696), and Nick Yunis (26th - $587).
In the end, it was Alan Katsnelson besting Vigorn Dancharnjitt in heads-up play to win the title, a $16,189 first-place prize, and his first gold ring.
“It means a lot. I had my family members put up for me so I’m just happy to do it for them. I won it for my family,” Katnelson said after the win. “I just had to pick my points. I was kind of card dead at the beginning. I finally got a hand, doubled up, then I pushed all in with ace-seven and I got two callers. Luckily nobody had an ace. I hit the ace and I tripled up.”
