The 2024 WPT Seminole Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open Championship began a few days ago and drew 1,435 entries, producing a prize pool of $4,592,000. Taking it down was Dylan Smith, winning outright for $662,200.
Smith, 33, is a local and has outstanding results at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood. His score today marked his fourth six-figure score inside these walls, most recently finishing fifth in the Championship event at the WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown back in May. It’s also his second SHRP major series trophy victory, having previously won a $10K PLO event during the 2023 LHPO.
“Exhausted, for sure. It’s mentally taxing,” said a relieved Smith after his triumph. “I’m super excited, obviously. I’m really happy I was able to redeem myself (after Showdown).”
