Simon Philip Takes Down Seniors Event to Win Second Ring in Back-To-Back Years at Hammond
While PokerNews is here offering live updates from the High Roller and Main Event we��d be remiss if we didn��t tell you about the full schedule of side events that have been playing out over the past week at the World Series of Poker Circuit Horseshoe Hammond.
In Event #3: $400 NLH Seniors, 275 runners create a $90,750 prize pool that was paid out to the top 45 players. Among those to cash but fall short of the official final table were Ira Lathan (10th- $1,387), Sandra Morse (13th - $1,146), Scott Buller (16th - $966), Allan Furman (18th - $833), Albert Bevilacqua (22nd - $734) and Frank Glass (25th- $661).
In the end, it was Florida native Simon Phillip who collected every chip in play to win his second gold ring in the Seniors Event in back-to-back years at Hammond and collected a $21,034 payday.
