The World Series of Poker Circuit is currently playing out at the Commerce Casino, the soon-to-be host of the 2024 WSOP Tournament of Champions. The festival includes 16 ring events, 13 of which have crowned their victors.

And last night, Jessica Vierling was the latest player to taste triumph in Los Angeles. The German poker pro topped the 1,467-entry field to take down the $1,700 Main Event for a best score of $328,273. With the win, Vierling bagged her second WSOPC ring and hit a career milestone as the prize she received took her over the $1 million mark in live earnings.

The WSOPC Commerce Main Event was the fourth largest of the 2023/24 season, with a final prize pool of $2,222,505. The top 164 players made the money, with the min-cash being $4,184.
