The 2018 Western New York Poker Challenge (WNYPC) rolls on tonight with Event #5: $120 No-Limit Hold'em $10,000 Guarantee getting underway at 5 PM local time inside the Seneca Niagara poker room.
This is the third straight night for the low buy-in hold'em event. Last night, a field of 152 entries gathered creating a guarantee smashing prize pool of more than $14,000 with John Griswold capturing the title. Though talks of a chop were brought up many times, they were always quickly declined by more than one finalist and eventually, into the wee hours of Wednesday morning, Griswold walked away with a top prize worth $3,821.
In 2017, Canadian border-crossing rounder Cameron Bartolotta topped 95 runners in this event en route to a four-way chop that netted him $2,007.
When the action gets underway this evening each player will start with 10,000 tournament chips with blind levels increasing every 20 minutes. Late registration will remain open until the end of Level 9 with unlimited re-entries available during that time.
