Over the past decade the PCA main event has consistently been one of the biggest events on the tournament circuit every year, always making a huge impact on the Card Player Player of the Year race.
The winner has finished inside the top ten in the POY race four out of the last six years, with prior champions including the likes of Gus Hansen (2004), Ryan Daut (2007), Bertrand “ElkY” Grospellier (2008) and Galen Hall (2011).
In 2013 PCA main event champion Dimitar Danchev earned $1,859,000 for topping a field of 987 players, defeating Joel Micka heads-up for the title. Micka took home $1,190,000 for his runner-up finish.
