��We��ve had more than 5,000 poker players participate in this year��s Million Dollar Heater,�� said Beau Rivage Poker Room Manager Henry Garrison. ��The tournament continues to grow and is considered the premier poker event in the South.��

Edmund Sexton, Jr. won the 2019 Beau Rivage Million Dollar Heater for $105K.

The $2,700 buy-in Main Event, which ran from January 12-14, attracted 158 entrants, which surpassed the $300K GTD by generating a $395,500 prize pool. After three days of action, Edmund Sexton Jr. took the $105,282 first-place prize back to Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

Prior to the win, Sexton had just $17,423 in lifetime earnings including a prior career-best of $10,705 for finishing sixth in the 2017 World Series of Poker Circuit Harrah��s New Orleans Event #4: $365 No-Limit Hold��em.

��This is a great way to start off 2019,�� Sexton said after the win. ��I feel like I��m waking up from a dream. I played with guys way better than me and won. It feels amazing.��

Others to cash but miss out on making the final table were Luther Tran (16th - $6,414), video poker jackpot expert Kyle Cartwright (13th - $7,923), and final table bubble boy Judge Leo Boothe (11th - $8,678), who retired from the Seventh Judicial District in 2014.

Sexton wasn��t the only big winner at the Beau Rivage. Two weeks ago, the series kicked off with Event #1: $360 No-Limit Hold��em, which offered up a $600K GTD. With 2,763 entries, the guarantee was smashed as an $801,270 prize pool was created.

The top 329 finishers got paid including David Bradshaw (3rd - $46,420), Durand Bass (15th - $8,376), David Nicholson (24th - $5,583), and Gary Blackman (27th - $5,583). In the end, it was William Stanford who emerged victorious to capture the $92,684 top prize, the biggest payout outside the Main Event.

Another player to capture a five-figure prize was Dennis Hicks, who bested a 504-entry field to win Event #9: $360 NLH Monster Stack for $36,139. That tournament crushed its $50K GTD by generating a $146,160 prize pool.

In addition to the Monster Stack, there was Event #13: $200 Little Monster, a tournament that drew 267 entries and created a $40,050 prize pool. Mack Ham won the one-day event for $11,300, while Chris Adams and Al Dapkus took second and third for $6,041 and $3,410 respectively.
