Kyle Cartwright Wins Sixth Circuit Ring; Crosses $1 Million in WSOP-Related Cashes

The 2015/2016 World Series of Poker Circuit at Harrah's Tunica Event: #8 $365 No-Limit Hold'em Monster Stack attracted 457 entries and created a $137,100 prize pool. On Thursday, that tournament came to an end with Kyle Cartwright as the last man standing.

If that name sounds familiar, that's because we once deemed Cartwright the "Poster Boy for the WSOP Circuit." That's because from 2011-2012, Cartwright caught fire by winning five rings and tying then all-time ring leader Mark "Pegasus" Smith. With his most recent win, Cartwright captured his sixth gold ring, though that is no longer the record as others have moved ahead since the WSOP Circuit started offering 12 rings at each of their stops.
