Level 4 is here and the guarantee is gone. The clock shows 157 players in the game and that puts the prize pool at better than $50,000. Registration and re-entry in the event is available until about 5:50pm and the final entry tally will continue upward growth until then.
Champions of all numbered events in Coco will earn a WSOP Circuit gold ring
The World Series of Poker Circuit at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek opening Event 1 marks players’ first opportunity to earn points toward the Casino Championship.
The Casino Championship race and the title of Casino Champion go to the player that accumulates the most points via in-the-money finishes in eligible gold ring events. Following the conclusion of the series, the player that owns the most points will go down as the Casino Championship and earn a free $10,000 entry in the Global Casino Championship. One additional $10,000 entry in that event is reserved for the Coconut Creek Main Event champion.
More details on the race are available on WSOP.com.
The field has more than doubled since Event 1 began less than 45 minutes ago. With the clock now showing more than 100 entries in the action, the event’s $50,000 guarantee is a blip on the prize pool radar. That figure should be eclipsed around first break and the count will continue to climb until registration closes after dinner.
The clock hits 11am local time and cards are in the air for Event 1 of the World Series of Poker Circuit at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek. This is the kickoff of 14 ring events on the series schedule and it marks players’ first chance to score gold at the property.
Those in the early game have taken their seats to 15,000-chip starting stacks and they’re set to log 30-minut levels throughout. Registration and re-entry are available until ~5:50pm and the field needs to crack 151 entries between now and then to best the $50,000 guarantee.
Here are the details:
$50,000 Guaranteed Prize Pool

September WSOP Circuit Seminole Casino Coconut Creek Coconut Creek, FL Main Event $1,700 No Limit Hold’em $1,000,000 Guaranteed Entries: 735 Prize Pool: $1,113,525 September 21-24, 2018
Dmitrii Perfilev, WSOP Circuit Main Event Champion
The headliner on the WSOP Circuit series schedule was the $1 Million Guarantee Main Event which played out over two starting flights and two play-down days. The tournament drew pro players from around the world and mixed with our local players to create a great field. Dmitrii Perfilev survived a long battle and defeated SHRP regular Sheddy Siddiqui to earn the Main Event title for nearly a quarter of a million dollars.
The 735 entries easily surpassed the guarantee and they were playing for a $1,113,525 prize pool. The last 81 players earned some of that money, but first, they needed to survive their starting flight. There were 162 players advancing to Day 2 with Harry O’Brien leading followed closely by Joshua Hood.
Other notable players returning included Jonathan Hilton, Spencer Champlin, Brian Hastings. Wally Maddah, Stu Paterson, and reigning SHRP Player of the Year Brett Bader. We also had two former November Niners join Day 2 but neither Jerry Wong nor John Dolan was able to make the final day.
Day 2 saw 17 players move on to the final day of the series. Perfilev built a big lead late in Day 2 and he bagged up the lead even though Corey Bierria cut into at the end of the evening.
Monday afternoon saw a couple quick eliminations before Bierria’s day came to an abrupt end in 15th place after sending several doubles around his table. Jason Wandling, Josias Santos, and Ken Bruno followed suit and Josh Abady’s knockout sent the Main Event to its ten-handed final table.
Paterson took ahold of the chip lead and only another hot run by Perfilev could slow him down. He worked hard throughout the last day but the former Coco Poker Showdown champ had to settle for a fourth-place payout.
The four remaining players exchanged the lead several times over more than two hours before Cesar Solares missed a flush draw to exit in fourth. Harry O’Brien was another tough out and it took three shots for Perfilev to send him out in third place.
He had nearly a two-to-one chip lead against Siddiqui when they began heads-up play and the match did not last long. Siddiqui attempted to get the stack closer but his comeback was cut short in second place.
Perfilev ran hot when he needed and earned his first career WSOP Circuit ring with the Main Event title while taking home $221,691.
Congratulations to Dmitrii and thank you to all our players who made the entire series a success.

Dmitrii Perfilev
Sheddy Siddiqui needed to make a move to get back in the match after dropping down to 4,000,000. He moved all in from the button and Dimitrii Perilev called to win the title.
Siddiqui: Perfilev:
Perfilev was ahead, Siddiqui was live, and the board ran out to give Perfilev the pot and the tournament. Siddiqui earned $137,298 for his great run to second place while Dimitrii Perfilev collected $222,691 along with the WSOP Circuit ring as the Main Event champion.
