While PokerNews is here offering live updates from the Main Event and High Roller, we��d be remiss if we didn��t tell you about the full schedule of side events that have been playing out over the past week at the World Series of Poker Circuit Harrah's Las Vegas.

In Event #3: $600 NLH, 188 runners created a $100,000 prize pool that was paid out to the top 29 players. Among those to cash but fall short of the final table were David Larson (11th - $1,705), Benjamin Craig (15th- $1,449), Mark Liedtke (21st - $1,198), Joshua Turner (24th - $1,062), and Ryan Dodd (25th - $977).

In the end, it was United Kingdom native Jon Aldalur who collected every chip in play to capture his first ring along with a $24,298 payday.

Aldalur hails from Spain. He and his girlfriend are in the midst of an extended vacation to New York, and Aldalur took a few days to come to Las Vegas to play the WSOP Circuit for his birthday. Coming here on his own took a little convincing �C ��She was doubting,�� he admitted with a slight smile.

��I��m in shock,�� a joyful Aldalur said after securing his victory.

Aldalur is a recreational player who works in commercial auto sales. But he��s a fairly serious amateur. ��I play a lot of tournaments,�� he said. ��I just like to play poker.��
