Pittsburgh Poker Open Event 8 Champion – Rob McConnell

As is expected with a Pot Limit Omaha final table, the action was fast and the swings were massive. Once the dust settled three players were left standing as Danny Ocean, Mingyuan Xu and Rob McConnell agreed to chop the remaining prize pool after a quick deal. All three players will take home $1,590 for their work here tonight. McConnell earns his first Pittsburgh Poker Open trophy along with 50 points to put toward the “Player of the Series” leaderboard.
