The Season 20 edition of World Poker Tour (WPT) Legends of Poker at Parkwest Bicycle Casino has come to an end and Joshua Pollock is the last one standing. Pollock defeated WPT mainstay Ray Qartomy at the end to claim his spot in the WPT Champions Club and a top prize of $573,350.
The $5,250 tournament drew 642 players for a total prize pool of $3,113,700.
Pollock’s first WPT title comes after a long career with two WSOP bracelets and just over $1.7 million in lifetime earnings. His previous best finish at Legends of Poker was a run to fourth in 2011.
“This is probably the top accomplishment. It’s the most money and it’s a tough field. It was a tough final table and I never thought I would get to a point where I had a chance to win one of these.”
