Over the weekend, the Major Series of Poker: The Tour (MSPT) was at Iowa’s Riverside Casino for a $1,110 buy-in Main Event. It marked the third time the tour visited the venue in 2025, and over the course of three starting flights, 591 runners competed, with 64 of them returning to Sunday’s Day 2 finale.
After 12 hours of play, it was Indiana’s Anthony Kastelic coming out on top to claim the title and $115,559 top prize. He did so by besting a stacked final four that included MSPT Hall of Famers Aaron Johnson and Kou Vang, who were seeing their second and fourth MSPT titles respectively, as well as former MSPT champ Max Havlish.
