LAPO Wraps Up Activities Successfully<\/h2>\n

The much-ballyhooed Los Angeles Poker Open festival has come to an end, held at the Commerce Casino the Sunday<\/strong> on November 18. In the end, it was Alex Massman<\/strong> who managed to outdo his opponents and bite off the juiciest chunk of the fund, with $136,000 going his way<\/a>. Apart from the title, he has de facto secured himself a way into the 2019 LAPC WPT Main Event Championship<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

His victory was a hard-fought one as he had to overcome well over 700 entries in order to secure the coveted first place. In the nearly three weeks of competition between November 2 through November 18, the LAPO dished out well over $500,000 in prizing money, making it one of the more significant tournaments around this time of year<\/a>. <\/p>\n
