The $1,100 Six-Max Pot Limit Omaha returned for Day 2 with eight players in the money, and when it was all over, recreational poker player Stephen Brite had outlasted a tough final table to win his first guitar trophy here at Seminole Hard Rock Tampa.

“The final table started off pretty bad for me,” said Brite. “I had the chip lead to start, but I lost that pretty quickly, and I had to come back. The final table had a lot of talented players, with James Carroll leading the pack. He’s definitely a tough player. I feel very fortunate to have won it.”

“I’ve had some success this year,” said Brite. “I got a fifth place in the main event here back in February, which was nice.” That was the biggest cash of Brite’s tournament career, when he earned $70,543. This score was a bit smaller, worth $24,287, but it came with the lovely guitar trophy that signifies Brite as a PLO champion.

“PLO is one of my favorite games,” said Brite. “I like all the games, I like high-low and stuff like that. I play a lot of PLO cash games. Tournaments, whenever there’s a good one like this one, I’ll definitely be in it.”
