The WSOP Circuit series is currently bringing poker action to Hard Rock Tulsa, where the $300 Seniors Event was on the tournament schedule. This event attracted an impressive 480 entries and a prize pool of $115,200. The story culminated in a captivating fashion as Daniel Lowery emerged victorious, earning $21,789 and his milestone 20th ring.
Lowery's history in Tulsa is starting to become legendary. This year marked his third seniors title at this stop, and the third seniors tournament title he has achieved here since becoming eligible. Last spring, he claimed victory in both seniors events, and now he adds another triumph. Tulsa has become a place where Lowery seems unbeatable in this category.
In the final, he left no room for error, confidently outplaying Garvis Frazier, who took second place and $14,501, and Brent Kashwer, who finished third for $10,085.
The Race for Rings Heats Up Again
Lowery's 20th victory has significantly shuffled the fight at the top of the WSOP Circuit's all-time leaderboard. Maurice Hawkins still leads with 23 rings, while Ari Engel and Daniel Lowery are tied in second place with 20 rings each.
Current Standings in the Race for Most WSOP Circuit Rings
- Maurice Hawkins – 23
- Ari Engel – 20
- Daniel Lowery – 20
- Josh Reichard – 16
Under the line, there are still several strong contenders, but this quartet is currently setting the pace. Hawkins built his lead mainly through a double victory in February at Tunica. Engel reached the 20-ring mark last autumn, and Lowery has now sent a clear message that he hasn’t said his last word in the chase for the historic record.
Seniors events hate to see this guy coming!
