Russell Brooks
We are down to just six players from a field 487 in the 2025 World Series of Poker Circuit Tulsa Main Event. After nearly ten hour-long levels of play Russell Brooks finished the night with the overall chip lead, bagging 6,230,000.
Brooks quickly ascended to the top of the counts after scoring a flurry of eliminations at the final two tables, including start-of-day chip leader Noah Nodine (15th - $5,820), Kasey Mills (12th - $6,990) and David Griffin (11th - $6,990). Brooks recently won his fourth circuit ring at this series after winning Event #9: $400 Double Stack for $31,916. Brooks is having a great 2025 so far, having recently won a $600 Pot-Limit Omaha circuit event this past January for a career-best live tournament score of $40,797, which he will surpass with a 4th place finish or better in the Main Event.
