With the first month of the year coming to an end, so did the WSOP Circuit January Super Series, which catered to a combined 8,653 entrants and awarded $3,080,707 over its 18 events.
Among the recognizable names to capture rings were Toby 'DustPistons' Lewis, Daniel 'centrfieldr' Lupo, Katie 'azulciel' Stone, Alexander 'jinyang' Butcher, Jasthi 'vkjasthi' Kumar, and Chris 'Robotbob47' Moorman, who actually defeated his wife in heads-up play to get the job done.
Meanwhile, New Jersey pro Daniel “juice” Buzgon topped the Player of the Month Leaderboard with 88.84 points (“gldude” was second with 70.46), meaning he earned a spot in the $250,000 WSOP Online Circuit Championship to be held later this year
