Brad Albrinck Wins First-Ever Queen City Circuit Title
It was a memorable weekend in Cincinnati as Ohio's first-ever WSOP Circuit ended with quite the bang. From 740 entries down to a single champion, Brad Albrinck, there were several memorable moments along the way here at the Horseshoe.
We saw bracelet winners like Indiana's Aaron Steury make a run at a ring. We saw Circuit notable Ryan Tepen enter Day 2 at the last possible minute and then run a stack all the way into Day 3. We saw a seven-figure prizepool in this Main Event and we saw a local recreational player top the pros to win the title.
Not only does Brad Albrinck earn $221,994, he also gets the first-ever Circuit Main Event ring awarded in Ohio, which means all the more to the Cincinnati resident. He also earns a seat into the 2014 WSOP National Championship in Atlantic City next May.
Joining Albrinck in Atlantic City will be Horseshoe Cincinnati Casino Champ Sam Panzica, who shipped his second consecutive seat to the bracelet event after winning his second and third career rings in Cincinnati.
Congratulations to Albrinck, Panzica, and all the other winners here in Cincinnati. It has been a great event and one players will certainly be looking forward to next season!
