Crushing 2017's mark of 48, this year's event drew a total of 86 entries. The $15,000 guarantee was easily surpassed closing off at $21,651. Just nine spots were to be paid but once the final table of ten was reached, the finalists decided to remove $50 from each prize and pay 10th $450.

Once the action kicked off, it was Peter Beshay to be the first player at risk. Battaglia made the call only to see both players have aces. Battaglia would end up making a wheel to bust the Canadian. The short stacks of Marty Desanto and Jordan Lagano were the next to be swallowed up before Battaglia outdrew Don Conrad to send him home in seventh.

A big confrontation between Girdler and Ken Wasik saw Girdler crack Wasik's aces with a full house and take a huge chip lead. With that, the final five players reached an agreement to chop up the remaining prize pool. Since Girdler had a sizeable chip lead, he was given $4,500 while the other four bank $3,310 each.

Friday at the WNYPC features the start of the $200,000 Guaranteed Main Event. The seventh event of the series carries a $1,000 buy in and kicks off at 11 AM with Day 1a action.
