The World Poker Tour (WPT) Seminole Hard Rock 'n' Roll Poker Open Championship wrapped up on Wednesday evening with Kevin Nee winning his first WPT title and $605,100.
The six-figure victory gave the Pennsylvanian, who defeated heads-up opponent Joel Gola, a new career-high score that is more than 20 times greater than the $25,000 he earned earlier this summer from a 669th-place finish in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event.
The final table also included high-stakes pro Aram Zobian (3rd - $295,000) and four-time bracelet winner Chad Eveslage (4th - $220,000), who was after his second WPT title after winning the 2021 WPT Venetian for $910,370 and 2022 Five Diamond World Poker Classic for $1,042,300.
