A 588-entry field – including a 328-entry final flight – turned out for the $500,000 Guaranteed Heartland Poker Tour $1,650 Main Event at Hollywood Columbus in Ohio.
This is the first time HPT has gone to Columbus and the field size was impressive. Local players had been saying for weeks the field would be big, and it was.
The prize pool came in at $855,540 and the winner is going to take home just shy of $200,000.
