Daniel Lowery is used to winning at poker. It seems every time you look up, you see him featured in yet another winner\u2019s pic at one of the various stops around the country.<\/p>\n

The vast majority of Lowery\u2019s wins have come on the WSOP Circuit. He recently won his 18th WSOPC ring<\/a> in Tulsa to remain in the heated three-way leaderboard chase for the most rings with Ari Engel<\/a> and Maurice Hawkins<\/a>, who have each added to the chase themselves recently.<\/p>\n

Lowery\u2019s skills are not limited to the circuit, as he also has several RunGood Poker Series rings, a tour he frequently plays as an ambassador alongside the WSOP circuit.<\/p>\n

But even a player as successful as the Arkansas native has empty boxes to check to fill out a poker resume. One of those empty boxes was checked this past weekend when he won his first career RGPS Main Event ring in Joplin, MO.<\/p>\n

Lowery topped the 496-entry field for a grand prize of $74,398. He defeated Justin Dreiling heads-up after entering heads-up play with a commanding chip lead, finishing off after Dreiling, who put up a great fight before going down in second place.<\/p>\n

Lowery the Closer<\/h2>\n

The career total earnings of $3.7 million puts him far out in front as the leader on the all-time Arkansas career earnings list<\/a>, his home state. He has six cashes of more than $100,000, with his greatest one coming for $394,636 in the WPT Seniors High Roller in December 2023. This win in Joplin is good for the eighth-best cash of his career.<\/p>\n

Lowery utilizes some advanced tournament poker strategy<\/a> later in tournaments. He is a very effective closer as he very often finishes off an event where he has an advantage. Not to mention an elite heads-up player as well, with 54 tournament wins and 28 second-place finishes (according to his Hendon Mob results), giving him a 65% heads-up winning percentage.<\/p>\n

With the 2025 WSOP on the horizon<\/a>, Lowery will be looking to build momentum in RGPS Kansas City before putting in the work this summer in Las Vegas where he will seek the one large empty box still remaining on his career achievements list: a WSOP bracelet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
