WPTDeepStacks events have been a mainstay on our schedules for a few years with some great results. But back in the early history of the tour, the first DeepStacks Poker Tour event run on a Seminole property was in Hollywood back in 2015. This was at the time when the tour was beginning its transition to the World Poker Tour banner and the 2015 SHR Hollywood LHPO Main Event, at the time, was one of the biggest the tour ran.

Compared to more recent turnouts, the 396 entries in that tournament might seem small but it set the standard moving forward for bigger, stronger, four-figure WPTDS fields.

This afternoon we have the winner of that tournament. Lawrence Whyte captured the title in 2015 over a tough final table that included Stuart Greenbaum, Stephen Diamantas, Nick Pupillo, Carlos Loving, soon-to-be SHRP Player of the Year Ory Hen, and current SHRP POY Brett Bader.

Whyte earned $91,000 for the title along with a piece of SHRP history.
