Craig Ashley Bags for Day 2 at WPT Prime Lodge Championship

Free Poker Network’s own Craig Ashley has officially secured himself a bag for Day 2 at the WPT Prime Lodge Championship in Austin, Texas.

Day 1A of the $1,100 buy-in event drew an impressive 260 entries to The Lodge Card Club. The end-of-day money bubble burst with 34:47 remaining in Level 16, leaving just 33 players to bag up chips and advance to Sunday’s Day 2. With that, Craig has officially locked up a cash and will return to play for the big money and a shot at the title.

Craig shared that the day was a roller coaster of ups and downs on the felt, testing his patience and focus throughout. But in classic FPN fashion, he stayed composed, battled back, and ended the night with chips in a bag and a smile on his face.

This run adds to an already impressive year for Craig, who previously earned a $5,000 WPT package during the Desert Dash for Cash National Championship and a $10,000 Main Event seat at the Step In The Ring National Championship.

As always, the Free Poker Network community is behind him, cheering on another deep run for one of their own. Follow live coverage and chip counts throughout the weekend at WPT.com as Craig continues his journey at the WPT Prime Lodge Championship.
