A trio of stories from the World Poker Tour including a second Main Event title for Kevin Eyster, a young Fedor Holz leading the Alpha8 final table in Las Vegas, and 21 confirmed for the WPT National Philippines Super High Roller.

Kevin Eyster has won his second World Poker Tour (WPT) Main Event title, and in doing so inserts himself into the Hublot WPT Season XIV Player of the Year lead.

Eyster won his first title back in Season XI when he overcame a field of 542 entrants to win the $660,395 first prize in the $5,000 buy-in WPT Seminole Hard Rock Showdown. He earned his second title, and $1,587,382 in prize money, after defeating 639 entrants in the $10,000 buy-in Five Diamond World Poker Classic in Las Vegas. Sandwiched in between those two years was a World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet win. It’s safe to say that Kevin Eyster is one hell of a player.
