The history of the World Poker Tour at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood goes back to the spring of 2011, back in the glory days of $10,000 buy-in tournaments and bottomless bags of money.

The 2011 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown was the first series to feature a WPT event and created a tough final table that included two of our entrants this afternoon.

Abbie Daniels made that televised final table and finish fourth while Curt Kohlberg finished runner-up to champion Taylor von Kriegenbergh. The other three players at the final table were no softies either with Tommy Vedes, Allen Bari, and Justin Zaki filling out the lineup.

If any of them failed to get there, two big names bubbled the TV table right behind them. Inaugural $10 Million GTD SHRPO champ Blair Hinkle finished in eighth-place followed by WTP/WSOP champ James Mackey finished in seventh.
