Unlike most of the United States, the legal gambling age in Florida is 18, providing a rare opportunity for players age 18-20 to play in a domestic WPT event. And just like last year, the 18-20 year old who goes the deepest in this event will win a bonus prize — a gift basket highlighted by an electric guitar.
The electric guitar basket sits on the Royal Flush Girl Social Bar, so the players can check it out during the tournament.
Christopher Barnes is one of only two 18-20 year olds in the field so far, though registration remains open until the beginning of play tomorrow.
Alexander Condon is the other 18-20 year old in the field. That’s a fair amount of extra tournament equity for the two players under 21.
