In Event No. 41, $1,500 Mixed Hold’em (Limit/No-Limit), Frank Gary won his first gold bracelet and the first prize of $219,562.

On Monday, just one final table concluded as Atlanta’s David Woo won Event No. 39, a $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em event for the top prize of $631,550

Only one final table is scheduled for today, Event No. 42, $1,000 Seniors No-Limit Hold’em World Championship. Tom McEvoy, Men “The Master” Nguyen, and “Captain” Tom Franklin all made it to day two of the three day event but did not reach the final table.
