Another World Series of Poker Circuit (WSOPC) stop wrapped up this week with WSOPC Lake Tahoe, a stop that consisted of more than a dozen Circuit ring events at Harveys Lake Tahoe from Nov. 2-13.

The WSOPC Lake Tahoe stop culminated with the $1,700 buy-in Main Event, which drew 362 entries for a prize pool of $548,430. New Jersey's Bradley Ritschel took the event down for $115,740 and his first Circuit ring after defeating heads-up opponent James Chavanarojrit, who walked away with $71,531.
