How Weisman Won Event #10
Dylan Weisman closed Day 1 with the chip lead atop the final six players. Weisman knocked out Chris Brewer in seventh place to finish Day 1 and put 2,480,000 chips in the bag. He never lost the top spot from there, eliminating all five of his opponents on Saturday to get the victory.
Weisman first knockout out Isaac Kempton when he backed into a flush against Kempton’s pair of aces. Although Kempton wound up with a sixth-place finish in this event, he did pick up 44 PGT leaderboard points to extend his lead on the season leaderboard.
After Kempton, Weisman busted Stephen Chidwick in fifth place, with Chidwick adding $98,000 to his bankroll. Matthew Wantman was next to go, hitting the rail in fourth place for $134,750. Wantman got the last of his chips in on a queen-seven-two flop. He had queen-jack-ten-seven for two pair against the queen-nine-six-three for Weisman. Another queen on the turn gave Wantman a full house, but then a nine on the river improved Weisman to a superior full house.
Ali Imsirovic, last season’s PGT champion, then fell in third place. He got his money in on a king-four-three flop with the king-ten-eight-five. Imsirovic was up against Weisman who had the ace-king-nine-nine. No help came for Imsirovic and he was out in third place for $183,750.
The tournament came down to heads-up play between Weisman and Cary Katz. Weisman had 4,935,000 in chips to Katz’s 2,415,000.
With the blinds at 30,000-60,000, the final hand came up. Weisman was on the button with ace-eight-five-five with one suit and limped in. Katz checked his option with queen-jack-three-three double suited. The flop was jack-five-two rainbow, giving Katz top pair and Weisman middle set. Katz checked, Weisman bet 80,000, and Katz called. The turn was a queen, improving Katz to two pair but it still wasn’t good. He checked and Weisman bet 340,000. Katz check-raised and the two got the money in the middle. Katz saw the bad news that his top two pair was behind Weisman’s set and was in need of a queen of a jack on the river. The river was an ace to secure the tournament victory for Weisman.

Dylan Weisman Leads $25K Pot-Limit Omaha Final Table
The impressive run for Dylan Weisman continues at the 2022 U.S. Poker Open as he finds himself leading the Event #10: $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha final table. Weisman is a stalwart at all the Omaha tournaments held inside the PokerGO Studio, and during this series, he has cashed in all three Pot-Limit Omaha tournaments and the Big Bet Mix – with those being the only four tournaments he has played.
Weisman finished with 2,480,000 in chips to headline the Event #10 final table that is set to stream exclusively on PokerGO.com at 4 p.m. ET. Weisman will be joined by Matthew Wantman, Cary Katz, Stephen Chidwick, defending 2021 PokerGO Tour Player of the Year Ali Imsirovic, and current 2022 PokerGO Tour leader Isaac Kempton. The final six have all locked up $73,500 in prize money, but all eyes are on the $416,500 first-place prize and PGT trophy.
The final Pot-Limit Omaha event of the 2022 U.S. Poker Open would see the stakes raised to $25,000 as it attracted a total of 49 entrants and created a prize pool of $1,225,000. Once play progressed to the final two tables, a double knockout of Alex Livingston and Joseph Cheong would put the final eight on the bubble. Sam Soverel lost a pot to Imsirovic before running flush-into-flush to be eliminated on the money bubble.
As the final seven merged to one table, action slowed as Imsirovic continued to extend his chip lead. Unfortunately for Imsirovic, he would send a few pots in the direction of Wantman and Katz, while Weisman took his chance to climb the leaderboard. On the final hand of the night, Weisman flopped a full house and managed to get all of Brewer’s chips on the river to end play for the evening.
This is Weisman’s fourth cash of the series from four tournaments where he previously finished fifth, fifth, and sixth. With his overwhelming chip lead, he is a favorite to improve on those finishers, and if he can finish in third-place or better, it will be the biggest cash of his poker career. Katz sits in second overall, but he spent the majority of the final table on the other end of the leaderboard. Two back-to-back doubles rocketed Katz up the chip counts, and he’ll sit just ahead of WPT Champions Club member Wantman who finished seventh in the previous $15,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event.
Rounding out the bottom half of the final table is Chidwick, Imsirovic, and Kempton. Chidwick has three previous Pot-Limit Omaha titles with a $10,000 buy-in or more, while Imsirovic has never won a Pot-Limit Omaha tournament. Imsirovic is fresh off his 2021 PokerGO Tour Player of the Year award, and on the current 2022 standings, he currently sits fifth overall. Imsirovic is eyeing Kempton who sits atop the 2022 standings with 1,331 points on the back of his Wynn Millions Main Event runner-up finish and third-place finish in the $15,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event early in the series.
