2024 Seminole Hard Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open Event 1 Champion Eric Yanovsky

Event 1 of the 2024 Seminole Hard Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open was the multi-flight $400 Deep Stack No-Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry). Across eight starting flights, a field of 6,480 entries generated a prize pool of $2,138,400.

Emerging victorious Eric Yanovsky, winning outright for $261,920.

“It feels pretty surreal,” said Yanovsky afterward. “I’m 22, but poker has been tough. I’ve had my ups and downs, but this is the high point, and I hope it keeps going up from here.”

Yanovsky bagged a healthy stack on Day 1 on just one bullet and entered Day 2 60th in chips of the returning 650 players. From there, he rose to 4th in chips of the 26 players who survived to advance to Day 3.

With 15 players remaining, Yanovsky was all in and at risk with ace-jack suited against Jeremy Becker’s pocket queens, but a fortunate ace found the flop to keep Yanovsky in the mix.

From there, Yanovsky dominated the field. He entered the final table as the chip leader and only surrendered the chip lead briefly, en route to his impressive victory.
