Denver Man Wins Pot-Limit Omaha Championship

 

Chance Kornuth was the winner of the $5,000 buy-in Pot-Limit Omaha championship at the 2010 World Series of Poker.  This marked his first career WSOP gold bracelet victory.  Kornuth exploded upon the scene at the Rio out of nowhere to collect $508,090 in prize money in what was only this second time to cash at the WSOP.  His Las Vegas winnings up to this point had amounted to $2,005.

The final duel was an all-Colorado battle.  The runner up was Kevin Boudreau, from Colorado Springs, CO.  He earned a very respectable consolation prize amounting to $313,792.

The top 45 finishers collected prize money.  Former WSOP gold bracelet finishers who cashed in this event included – Jason Mercier (16th), Joshua Tieman (21st), Ayaz Mahmood (22nd), and Annette Obrestad (36th).

A full report of this event will be posted shortly.

If you've ever watched the World Series of Poker and thought that could be me, you're not alone. Since 1970, the WSOP has been the place where that dream lives. Most people know the summer series in Las Vegas, where the $10,000 Main Event turns ordinary players into legends. But the WSOP calendar has grown well beyond that. WSOP Europe and WSOP Paradise now bring bracelet competition to international destinations, and dozens of Circuit events run year-round for players who want serious competition closer to home. Whether you're grinding a Circuit stop or taking your shot at the Main Event, the hardware means something. Winning a gold bracelet or Circuit ring is more than just a trophy. It's a permanent record that you are a champion. For players in Nevada, New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, WSOP Online has become something worth paying attention to. It's the only platform in the US where you can win a poker tournament for official WSOP gold bracelets without leaving home! The WSOP also offers deposit limits and self-exclusion tools because the best poker rooms have always known that keeping poker players healthy keeps the game healthy. From your first Circuit event to a final table in Las Vegas, WSOP is still where you go to prove something.
