Richard Ashby Adds a WSOP Circuit Ring to His WSOP Bracelet

Richard Ashby's first live poker tournament victory since September 2019 has resulted in him adding a World Series of Poker (WSOP) Circuit ring to the WSOP bracelet he captured in 2010. Fittingly, Ashby, a Pot-Limit Omaha specialist, won his WSOPC ring in the £1,100 buy-in PLO event at the WSOPC Super Circuit in London.

Fifty-five entrants created a guarantee-busting £53,350 prize pool that the top eight finishers shared. A min-cash weighed in at £2,100 with the eventual champion, Ashby, receiving £15,430 and the all-important gold WSOPC ring.

Ajay Kejriwal was the first player to bust inside the money places. The Middlesex-based grinder, who finished fifth in the £3,000 buy-in event at the 888poker LIVE London High Roller Festival last April, bowed out in eighth for £2,100.

Rajesh Khanna busted in seventh for £2,600, his second-largest live score, before Jake Bluston saw his tournament end in a sixth-place finish worth £3,300.
