WSOPC Harrah's New Orleans: Luke Graham stands out in front of a record field
The World Series Of Poker Circuit (WSOPC) continue their flight. The stage of New Orleans has just ended and crowned Luke Graham as winner. Note that the WSOPC Harrah's New Orleans attracted a record field of 762 participants, having generated a prizepool of $ 1.143.000. 42-year-old, the broker coming from West Palm Beach pocketed the amount of $ 228,600 for this performance. It is not his first achievement in the WSOPC circuit because he has already won the victory during the No-Limit Hold'em tournament of $ 1,060 and was finalist of the Main Event at the WSOP Palm Beach Kennel Club. However, he has just won his first golden ring.
The young champion is of course delighted with his achievement, which allowed him to jump at the 32th place of the Player Of The Year ranking. He even entrusted that he attaches little importance to money and he will certainly use his gain to take part at the world championships of poker in Las Vegas. Thanks to his triumph at this poker tournament, Graham also won a place for the WSOP National Championship of $ 1,000,000, which will be held in New Orleans, from May 22th to 24th. He will already be able to win a golden bracelet if he succeeds to stand out. Meanwhile, he can enjoy his victory. As a reminder, he eliminated Joseph Herbert at the final duel. The latter won the bonus of $ 140,932. Kasra Khodayarkhani occupies the bronze place provided with a bonus of $ 103,899.
