Event #12
$1,500 Moneymaker Main Event NLH (Re-Entry)
Entries: 239
Prize Pool:  $322,650
August 15 - 19, 2024

Event 12 of the 2024 Moneymaker Tour at Daytona Beach was the $1,500 Buy-in NLH Main Event. The event drew 239 entries over three starting days surpassing the posted $300,000 guarantee.

The event attracted players from around the world and saw deep runs from Florida locals Ryan Hogan (7th), PBKC Main Event winner Bryce McVay (26th), and TK Miles (28th). Tour namesake Chris Moneymaker led the final 31 players into Day 2, but fell short of the final table finishing in 14th place. Fellow WSOP Champion, Greg Raymer (6th), made the livestream final table and exited quickly as his AQ fell to third place finisher David Nathaniel's Aces on a Queen high board. 

In the end, Central Florida resident Michael Snow turned a $186 satellite win into $74,765, a custom autographed Moneymaker Tour logo painting, and the coveted Moneymaker trophy!
