The darling of this Hard Rock Tulsa circuit stop, Greg Jennings, who has won his first and second WSOP circuit rings this stop, also bagged. He will bring 235,000 into Day 2.

Thomas Ross took down Event #11 $400 6-Max. He defeated 221 players and played about ten hours to claim his first WSOP ring and the $17,392 top prize. Ross came into the final table third in chips and battled to three handed before he won a three-way all in which eliminated Joe Ferguson in third place. Ross won the main pot off Ridge Gault and then made quick work of the heads up match.

 

 
Ross has worked for 19 years at the Kellogg company.
 
"I work for Tony the Tiger," he said.
 
He said he doesn't play that much poker and that this is only his second tournament since before the pandemic. Despite not playing much poker, Ross still had his eyes set on the WSOP circuit ring over the money for his win.
 
"It was definitely a goal, even more than the money," he said.
 
Ross now plans on playing the main event and possibly some more tournaments down the road after booking this win. If the cards keep falling his way as they did in Event #11, he will be tough to beat.
 
"I had a blast and I ran good all day. Except for really just one hand."
