Caitlin Comeskey, Matt Savage Nab WPT Voyage Side Event Trophies
The first-ever WPT Voyage is in the books, and the fun times in the Caribbean on board the Valiant Lady are now a distant memory.
While there were plenty of non-poker highlights — including a pajama party, tennis and golf outings and pickleball lessons from Vince Van Patten — it was the poker tournaments that brought hundreds of grinders on board. And while most of of those players went home with seashells as souvenirs, a handful of them were fortunate enough to leave with a WPT trophy in their travel bags.
One of the biggest winners of the weeklong Voyage was Aram Oganyan, who took down the $5,000 buy-in WPT Voyage Championship for $203,845 after a three-way chop with Carlo Basurto (2nd - $202,885) and Austin Srur (3rd - $188,670). Meanwhile, Brazil's Gregory De Faria shipped the $1,100 WPT Voyage Prime Championship outright for $155,400.
