While PokerNews is here offering live updates from the Main Event and High Roller, we��d be remiss if we didn��t tell you about the full schedule of side events that have been playing out over the past week at the World Series of Poker Circuit Choctaw Durant
In Event #1: $400 Monster Stack, 765 entrants competed over two starting flights, which resulted in a $252,450 prize pool. Among those to finish in the top 111 and make the money was Eddie Stokes (19th - $1,878), Jacob Seale (33rd - $1,313), and Jack Bendetti (65th - $642), just to name a few.
In the end, 24-year-old Cody Coffman of Tulsa, Oklahoma bested Robert Miller in heads-up play to win the title for $47,458 and his first gold ring. He did so by coming into Day 2 as the overall chip leader.
��Yeah, I mean, I didn��t like being top just because it puts pressure on you�� but obviously I prefer it. Because of my cash game background, I like playing deeper. It��s better for me anyway,�� said Coffman, a full-time student at Northeastern State studying Cyber Security.
He added: ��It feels great. I mean, I usually play cash. Cash games are more steady. You don��t come in and buy in for four hundred and win 47k, so it��s just insane. It��s a great feeling �� I mean, I��ve played instead of having a job through college and I love it, it��s fun, but it��s just not something I��d want to do as a job. It��s just a hobby�� I just want to work full time and play. I��ll still play a ton.��
