While PokerNews is here offering live updates from the High Roller and Main Event, 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 Horseshoe Hammond.

In Event #7: $400 Omaha 8 or Better, 104 runners created a $34,320 prize pool that was paid out to the top 16 players. Among those to cash but fall short of the official final table were Kane Francis (10th- $696), John Holley (11th - $696), Andy Edgington (12th - $696, Paul Ewen (13th - $613), Chester Foster (14th - $613), Gregory Smith (15th- $613), and Thomas Ackmann (16th - $558)

In the end, it was Illinois native Dragan Culafic who shipped his first gold ring along with a $9,806 payday.

��It feels pretty good.�� Culafic stated after his win. ��I��m not really a tournament player, but winning the ring definitely feels nice.��

Culafic went into the final table near the bottom of the pack but grinded his way the heads-up battle where he way a 4:1 underdog against Mariia Levseieva.

The chip disadvantage didn��t discourage Culafic as he stayed focused and picked his spots collecting all the chips to earn his first career WSOPC ring.

Culafic��s victory secured his first WSOP cash for $9,806 along with 50 casino points towards the Global Casino Championship.
