The 2025 Poker Showdown recently wrapped up at South Florida’s Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. Well, technically, not everything is wrapped up as the final table of the $3,500 buy-in, $3 million GTD WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown Championship is on hiatus before heading to Las Vegas next month to play to a winner.

Aside from that one tournament, all 74 events on the schedule have crowned winners, and combined, they catered to 21,162 entrants and awarded $20,008,190 in prize money, nearly double the $10 million that was guaranteed. According to the Seminole Hard Rock, it was only the fifth time in their history that they drew more than 20,000 entries and the sixth time at least $20,000,000 in prize money was awarded.

One of the big stories from the stop was the movement on the SHRP all-time wins list. Early on, Yuval Bronshtein booked a win to claim his 12th title, which put him within one of Raminder Singh. However, the latter would win two more titles to get up to No. 15, but Bronshtein wasn’t done claiming two more victories for three in the same series to, once more, trim Singh’s lead to one.

Here’s a look at some other big winners from the series.

Reichard Makes Big Comeback Against Kabrhel

Event #64: $10,000 Deep Stack NLH ran from April 6-7 and attracted 122 runners, which surpassed the $1 million guarantee by offering up a $1,159,000 prize pool. The tournament required an extra day so that the final two – reigning WPT Poker Showdown champ Josh Reichard and the much-maligned Martin Kabrhel – could play to a winner.

Reichard began heads-up play down to 205,000 (8 bb) to Kabrhel’s 2,850,000 (114 bb), but an epic comeback was in order. Reichard secured several doubles, including one where he held quad queens and got max value from a full house. Before long, Reichard closed it out to complete the comeback and win the tournament outright for $288,400.

Cherish Andrews Claims High Roller Title

One of the last tournaments on the schedule was Event #69: $25,500 High Roller NLH, which boasted a $1 million guarantee. The tournament drew 70 entries, which created a $1,729,000 prize pool reserved for the top nine finishers.

The tournament was filled with a murderer’s row of poker crushers, and after Kevin Rabichow was eliminated in fifth place, the final four worked out a deal. Cherish Andrews held a big chip lead and was crowned the winner and most money.

It was the second major SHRP trophy for Andrews to go along with her $1,100 Deep Stack Turbo win two years ago at the 2023 Poker Showdown.

Brock Wilson, the boyfriend of Andrews, was also a part of the deal, ultimately finishing in third place. Even so, he was happy to jump in the winner’s photo with Andrews, though she noted he declined to sit on her lap.
