The World Series of Poker (WSOP) Circuit Las Vegas is running full steam in Las Vegas. The series that kicked off on November 21 and is slated to run until December 3 has crowned over 12 champions, with Darren Rabinowitz being among the latest big winners. The well-accomplished poker pro overcame a field of 84 entrants in the WSOPC Event #10: $2,200 High Roller at the Horseshoe Las Vegas. The latest victory was his fourth WSOP ring and earned a $47,602 payday from the $168,000 prize pool.
“It’s great to win any tournament, so Circuit wins are great,” the eventual winner said. “Especially a $2,200 High Roller in Vegas. It was a tougher field than most Circuit stops I’ve played. “
While Rabinowitz won the title, Jessica Vierling stole the show with her incredible comeback in this event. Vierling, who scored her career-best score of $328,273 by clinching the WSOPC Main Event in Los Angeles earlier this year, narrowly captured her third WSOPC ring with a close call in this high roller event.
A total of 69 entrants registered for this high roller tournament on Day 1, and 20 players made it to Day 2. Among those returning for Day 2 play, Jessica Vierling (38,000) was the second shortest stack. However, she battled her way back to climb up the ranks, reach the final table and eventually make it to the heads-up against Rabinowitz, who managed to prevail over his tough opponent, claiming his fourth ring and $47k prize.
Vierling put up a good fight but suffered a couple of coolers, eventually missing out on her third WSOPC ring and settling in second place for $30K. This is her fourth most significant score this year, following the $98,250, the second best score of the year, which she earned in September for her runner-up finish in the $5,100 PokerGO Tour Poker Masters event.
