Two bracelets have been awarded yesterday:
| Buy-in | Event | Prize |
| $0 | Event #4: Tournament of Champions | $200,000 |
| $1,500 | Event #7: $1,500 Limit Hold’em | $146,835 |
Event #4: Tournament of Champions
The Tournament of Champions is a freeroll and opened to winners of ring events from the 2022/2023 WSOP Circuit season and bracelet winners from the WSOP Online and WSOP Europe.
741 took the starting line, and the $1M prizepool was divided between the top 100. After battling four days, the top prize of $200,000 went to Ronnie Day, winner of $400 Ring Event #6 at the WSOPC Southern Indiana in May.
A big win for the player who won his first bracelet as his total earnings now tops at $508k.
Event #7: $1,500 Limit Hold’em
Ukrainian Vadim Shlez is the winner of the 527 entries tournament for $146,835.
“I’ve been working on it for pretty much my whole life,” Shlez told PokerNews. “I started poker pretty much with the World Series of Poker. … I didn’t expect to win in this discipline, even though it was my favorite game when I started.”
Shlez is not a newcomer, having totaled more than $1,4M in total live earnings, particularly winning a $3,500 Borgata event for $533k in 2011.
In progress
