Wynn Summer Classic Daily Recap: Series Ends as Phillip Latimer Wins the Final Event
Yesterday (July 14), was the last day of action at the Wynn Summer Classic, closing out what has been an incredible summer of poker.
The final day of the event had just two simple one-day events to complete. A $600 No Limit Hold’em ($50k GTD) and a $600 No Limit Hold’em Turbo ($50k GTD).
The small schedule still attracted a big player base which made for a quiet send off to a massive two-months of poker in which almost $70 million in prizes were handed out across 87 events.
Americ Stiller Wins $44,303 in $600 NLH Event
The last $600 No Limit Hold’em ($50k GTD) event of the Wynn Summer Classic was won by Americ Stiller, who outlasted 447 entries to earn a $44,303 cut of the $230,205 prize pool.
The tournament's guarantee of $50,000 anticipated a turnout of just over one-fifth of those numbers. Instead, the event rivalled some of the biggest one day events of the serie, ending the festival on a strong note.
Of the prize pool, some $29,637 went to Jordan Henegar, Stiller's heads-up opponent. Henegar ultimately took second place.
