Return of the 2017 WPT BPO Champion
Level 3
: 100/200, 200 ante
Since he won the 2017 BPO Championship event, along with more than $789,000, Guo Liang Chen has gone on to accumulate more than $1 million in reported tournament earnings. It was right here in this very room two years ago when a relatively unknown player bested a final table stacked with the likes of 2016 November Niner Cliff 'JohnnyBax' Josephy, Matt Parry, Jia Liu, Thomas Paul, and Greg Weber.
Following that huge six-figure score, he's notched a couple of other five-figure ones, including a runner-up finish earlier this year. He took 2nd place (out of 2,874 entries) and $78,716 in the February 2018 Parx Big Stax 300. That event was won by WPT Champions Club member Victor Ramdin.
