$1,650 Winter Poker Open Championship (Re-Entry)
Level 5: 150/300/50 Ante

With deep, 30,000-chip starting stacks and 45-minute levels, players continue to file in here at the Seminole Hard Rock in Tampa. One of the most recent entries into the Championship also happens to be one of the hottest players on the circuit right now — Cory Waaland.

Waaland has recorded 23 cashes in 2015 including two WSOP Circuit victories in just the last two months. Waaland boasts career earnings of more than $500,000 and looks to increase that number significantly by scoring what is almost assured to be a six-figure top prize in the Winter Poker Open Championship.

Despite an active start, Waaland’s stack hovers right around 30,000.
