Taylor Von Kriegenbergh's time to shine is now.

Von Kriegenbergh wins the WPT Seminole Hard Rock Main Event in what was a marathon session ... it took about 5 hours of play for the first of the six final table participants to be eliminated.

Von K earns his fourth PTPR Score of the season and sky-rockets to the #3 spot on the 2011 PTPR Player of the Year Leaderboard.

Von Kriegenbergh defeated Curk Kohlberg heads up to win the WPT bracelet - the first ever awarded in the State of Florida.

Of note, 5th place finisher Allen Bari earns his second PTPR Score of the year.

Here are the winning from our final table participants:
Taylor Von Kriegenbergh $1,122,340
Curt Kohlberg $586,109
Justin Zaki $415,680
Abbey Daniels $286,819
Allen Bari $211,997
Tommy Vedes $166,272

This was the final event on the 2010-11 WPT schedule prior to the WPT World Championship, which comes later this month - David Williams will be looking to defend his title at Bellagio!
