Jonathan Taylor was crowned the new WSOP Circuit Lodge Casino Main Event Winner after he outlasted a field of 420 poker players in Black Hawk, Colorado. He was richer by $138,938, got the coveted WSOP Circuit Gold Ring and an automatic seat to the National championship in May. But being the Southern Indiana Casino Champion earlier in the season he already has a seat to the Championships thus one seat will now be given away to another poker player.
