Jordan Cristos Leads, Sean Winter Makes Back to Back Final Tables
Jordan Cristos leads the final six players in Event #2: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha. Play resumes on the PokerGO live stream at 5 p.m. EST.
Cristos is almost a million chips in front of the next closest player, Cary Katz. Katz is looking for his first-ever PLO tournament win. His best previous finish in a PLO tournament is fourth.
Sean Winter enters as the short stack, but with back-to-back final tables, he will at least tie U.S. Poker Open leader and defending champion Stephen Chidwick for first place in the overall standings. If he manages to ladder to fifth or better, Winter will take the first place spot. Winter finished second in Event #1 to Chidwick and both players jumped into Event #2. Chidwick finished 18th.
Manig Loeser, Adam Hendrix, and Martin Zamani are all making their first U.S. Poker Open final table.
