Congratulations to Kurt Jewell on winning his second WSOP Circuit Main Event title ring! The 2010 Circuit Horseshoe Hammond winner just won the WSOP Circuit Harrah's Tunice title, besting Chris Thompson heads up in a see-saw affair.

Fourth place finisher Jacob Bazeley was runner-up to Robert Castoire at the Circuit Southern Indiana Main Event last season.

The World Series of Poker Circuit Main Event at Harrah's Tunica has wrapped up.

Congrats to Sam Barnhart who just won the WSOPC ring with the main event victory. Barnhart won the event in style, he was holding pocket kings on the final hand of the tournament.

This is Barnhart's first major tournament score and obviously, his first PTPR Score.

Barnhart collects a little less than 150k and 35 PTPR Points with the win.

WSOPC Horseshoe Hammond Main Event winner Kurt Jewell was the early chip leader in the event - but could only manage a 8th place finish - still, an impressive result.
