Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Moments after Martin Ryan lost his his last ten big blinds when his jack-ten failed to improve against an opponent's Big Slick, WSOP Bracelet winner Jessica Dawley jammed her last 15,000 in with pocket fours, and John Gallaher called with ace-queen.

An ace on the turn spelled doom for Dawley, and she hit the cage to re-enter.

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

The PokerNews Live Reporting Team is at the Horseshoe Southern Indiana in the Louisville area to live report the $1,700 Main Event; however, that is just one of more than a dozen gold ring events that have taken place over the past week. As such, we thought we’d profile some of the preliminary tournaments and those who struck it big.

Event #7: $400 Pot-Limit Omaha Rebuy saw 44 runners create a $40,220 prize pool that was paid out to the final seven.

In the end, Justin Geary of Lagrange, Kentucky bested Ross Schitter in heads-up play to win the title for $14,523 and his first gold ring.

"I normally play Omaha cash games, but I was about 70% sure I was going to win when Day 2 began," Geary said after his victory, which also awarded him 50 points towards the 2020 Global Casino Championship.

Final Table Results

Place	Player	Hometown	Prize
1	Justin Geary	Lagrange, Kentucky	$14,523
2	Ross Schitter	Louisville, Kentucky	$8,976
3	Adam Lamphere	Lansing, Michigan	$6,019

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

The big blind checked a board over to Michael Esquivel, who bet 28,500 from the cutoff into a pot of 33,000, leaving himself just 17,500 behind.

The big blind tanked for a few minutes before electing to call, only to muck after Esquivel tabled for trip fives.

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

The PokerNews Live Reporting Team is at the Horseshoe Southern Indiana in the Louisville area to live report the $1,700 Main Event; however, that is just one of more than a dozen gold ring events that have taken place over the past week. As such, we thought we’d profile some of the preliminary tournaments and those who struck it big.

For example, in Event #8: $400 No-Limit Hold’em Turbo, 111 entrants created a $36,629 prize pool that was paid out to the top 17 players. Among those to cash but fall shy of making the final table were Zach Hench (10th - $722), Kevin Sherrill (13th - $626), John Rose (16th - $560), and Lisa Potter (17th - $560).

Retiree Robert Gray of Atlanta, Georgia wound up the victor, which was good for $10,296 in prize money and his first gold ring.

"There was no point that I thought I was going to win, not until the last hand." he said.

Final Table Results

Place	Player	Hometown	Prize
1	Robert Gray	Atlanta, Georgia	$10,296
2	Joshua Snodgrass	Catlettsburg, Kentucky	$6,363
3	Alexander Hoff	Wentzville, Missouri	$4,415
4	Matthew Ernst	Lexington, Kentucky	$3,141
5	Jerod Smith	St. Louis, Missouri	$2,294
6	Paul Mattioda	Knoxville, Tennessee	$1,720
