Dan Bekavac, the owner of the Midway Poker Tour who won a Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT) event last week for $193K (and his third MSPT title), says he's ready to begin the process of paying out players from a 2020 charity poker tournament debacle.
In October 2020, Bekavac hosted the inaugural Midway Poker Tour $1,100 buy-in Main Event at a hotel in the Chicagoland area that attracted 266 runners. The tournament started off without a hitch, but things turned south when players in the money began to realize they weren't going to receive their full winnings.
