All the World Series of Poker Bracelet Winners So Far

While the World Series of Poker Main Event is just about to get underway, a plethora of events are already in the books.

The 2019 World Series of Poker kicked off May 29 with the $500 Employees Event and the poker circus won't leave town before July 16 with the crowning of a winner in Event #89: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em. There are actually 90, and not 89, events this year. Event #90, a $50,000 High Roller, was added to the schedule when the WSOP was already underway and will be played July 8 through 10.

So far, 72 events have started with the majority already in the books. Robert Campbell is the only two-time winner so far this year. He won $144,027 in the $1,500 Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw defeating a field of 467 players, and yesterday added $385,763 and another gold bracelet triumphing over 150 others in the $10,000 Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship.

Ben Heath, Stephen Chidwick, Daniel Strelitz, Isaac Baron, Roman Korenev, Joseph Cheong, Ismael Bojang, Luke Schwartz, and Ari Engel are amongst the familiar names that won their first bracelet.

Players like John Hennigan, Eli Elezra, Scott Clements, Michael Mizrachi, Scott Seiver, Greg Mueller, Anthony Zinno, Nick Schulman, and David "ODB" Baker are just some of the players from a sizable list that added another bracelet to their prize cabinet.

Femi Fashakin had to overcome the biggest field to win his bracelet so far this summer. He beat a field of 28,371 players to take home $1,147,449 in the BIG 50, a $500 no-limit hold'em event; the biggest live tournament in the history of the game. Phillip Hui took home a comparably sized $1,099,311, but he "only" had to defeat 73 others to take home the gold. He, however, had to wager $50,000 and take on some of the best players in the world as his bracelet cam in the $50,000 Poker Players Championship.

Of the 90 bracelets, 67 have beenrewarded so far. Seven of the winners became instant millionaires. Besides the aformentioned Femi Fashakin and Phillip Hui who hit the magical seven-figure payout the following players all won more than a million too. Ben Heath won $1,484,085 in the 50th Annual High Roller - $50,000 No-Limit Hold'em, John Gorsuch took home $1,344,930 winning the Millionaire Maker, Stephen Chidwick became $1,618,417 richer triumphing in the $25,000 PLO High Roller, Kainalu McCue-Unciano won $1,008,850 in the Monster Stack, and Dash Dudley picked up $1,086,967 and the bracelet in the $10,000 PLO.

Nicholas Haynes ($62,248 for winning the $500 Employees event), Yuval Bronshtein ($96,278 for winning the $1,500 2-7), and Eli Elezra ($93,766 for winning the $1,500 Stud) are the only ones taking home a five-figure score for their win, all the other events boasted six-figure first-place prizes.
