Justin Lapka secured a win at the WSOP Circuit Choctaw Main Event, outlasting 1,017 participants. He earned $252,282 and his third WSOPC ring.<\/p>\n

The $1,700 buy-in no-limit hold\u2019em event, the first WSOP Circuit stop after the 2024 WSOP in Las Vegas, exceeded its $1 million guarantee by over $500,000. A total of 152 players shared the $1,540,755 prize pool.<\/p>\n

Lapka, from Saint Paul, Minnesota, took home the largest share. He now has over $1.5 million in recorded tournament earnings. This was his first live win in a WSOP event; his previous bracelets and rings were won online.<\/p>\n

Several well-known players made deep runs. Matthew Wantman, the 2019 World Poker Tour Aria Summer Championship winner, finished 20th. Michael Wang, a two-time bracelet winner, secured 16th place. Preston Duron, the 2023 Lodge Championship Series main event winner, finished 11th.<\/p>\n
