May 1 – 4, 2025

The 2025 Tampa Poker Classic Championship drew 396 entries over three starting flights. The $1,700 buy-in tournament turned a $300,000 guarantee into a prize pool worth $594,000. After dominating the late stages of Day 2, Johnny Bromberg walked away with his first Tampa title for $90,019 and the TPC trophy in a three-way deal.

This is Bromberg’s sixth tournament win in the last 12 months, including three at our friend’s house in Hollywood (two a few weeks ago) and his second WSOP Circuit ring. This cash put him over $1.3 million in career earnings with a big summer ahead and riding a heater.

Congrats, Johnny, and thank you to everyone for coming out!
