The 2023 Pinktober Poker Open was our last major series of the year and it was a fantastic two weeks in the Poker Room. In addition to handing out some big prize pools, the series raised thousands of dollars for the American Cancer Society.

Events: 8
Guarantees: $410,000
Entries: 2,390
Prize Pools: $715,845

The series featured eight trophy events with $410,000 in guarantees and attracted 2,390 entries for $715,845 in prize money.

The PPO Championship headlined the series and drew 298 entries to create a prize pool worth $283,100. After a tough final table, Frank Weigel captured the title outright for over $60K and the PPO Guitar trophy.

Another notable win was $600 Deep Stack champ Karl Manouchakian. He won the trophy, went deep in the Championship, and now sits only a few thousand dollars away from topping $1,000,000 earned in his career.

You can find results for all PPO events below, and we look forward to seeing you at our next major series in January.

The Tampa Winter Poker Open was moved from early December to late January. Running from January 24 through February 5 with nine trophy events.
