The 2017 WNYPC Final Four Starts Now!
Three Canadians and a player from Buffalo, NY will fight for a $57,738 first-place prize and the title of 2017 Western New York Poker Challenge Main Event Champion inside the Niagara Falls Poker Room at the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino today.
Buffalo's own Guy Klass, who finished third here two years ago, has the chip lead. However, WSOP Bracelet winner Michael Malm and fellow Canadians Anne Jones and Peter Beshay are well within striking distance.
Play will kick off at 12 p.m. local time with each player guaranteed at least $19,326 and the chance to ladder up for more. Blinds will start at a hefty 20,000/40,000 with a 4,000 ante and the average stack at around 50 big blinds, so there is some poker to be played.
PokerNews will be on hand providing live coverage from start to finish. Stay tuned to find out who becomes the 2017 WNYPC Main Event Champion.
