One down, (at least) 17 more to go!

The first stop on the highly-anticipated 2024/25 WSOP Circuit season has crowned its Main Event champion, with Justin Lapka winning his third WSOP Circuit Ring in Choctaw.

Lapka topped a 1,017-player field and defeated Gregg Merkow heads-up to win $252,282 and a seat for the 2025 WSOP Tournament of Champions.

Lapka came into the final day fifth in chips but worked his way back into the mix to clinch his first live piece of WSOP hardware after two online bracelets and two online WSOPC rings.
