Walter Chambers is New Orleans Circuit Poker Champion

Date: May 28, 2005 Buy-in: $10,000 Number of Entries: 259 Total Prize Money: $2,460,500 Winner: Walter Chambers, $787,340

What are the odds that the World Series of Poker Circuit's last championship event would produce a final showdown featuring two graduates of Louisiana State University? Walter Chambers (Class of 2000) and Corey A. Bierria (Class of 1998) outlasted a WSOP Cicruit record field of 259 players and carved up over a million dollars in prize money. Bierria earned $433,050 as the runner up, while Chambers collected $787,340, plus the gold ring presented to all WSOP Circuit champions.

The 2005 New Orleans Circuit is the last stop of the WSOP Circuit Events. The poker universe will now revolve in Las Vegas the next few weeks for the 2005 WSOP World Championship, from June 3 to July 15, 2005. Tournaments will be held at Harrah's Rio Casino but the final table will be taped by ESPN at Binion's Horseshoe.
