What can we say? The poker brat never ceases to entertain the WSOP this year:

#	Buy-in	Event	Player	Prize
31	$1,500	Event #31: No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw	🇺🇸 Phil Hellmuth	$84,951

Event #31: No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw

He finally did it! Starting second in chips at 10 left, Phil Hellmuth made it happen to reach his 16th bracelet, making him even harder to reach in the bracelet race.

“I’ve wanted a deuce-to-seven bracelet ever since the 1980’s because it was the coolest bracelet to win. It’s the one tournament that Chip, Doyle, and all the big named poker players showed up for.”

Phil tried to explain what happened the other days: “I’ve studied these games my whole life, so I have all the knowledge. What’s been killing me is that I get tired and I blow it. Or I get tilted and I blow it. I’ll be down here at the Rio and it’s one in the morning and I’m so tired. And I just play a bunch of bad hands and I’m out.”

Here are the other results of the tournaments:

Player	Place	Earnings
🇮🇹 Dario Sammartino	6th	$13,463
🇺🇸 Ryan Riess	9th	$7,602
🇺🇸 Daniel Zack	29th	$2,674
🇺🇸 Brian Rast	39th	$2,445
🇺🇸 John Racener	40th	$2,445

That’s not all!

In the $1,500 event #30: MONSTER STACK No-Limit Hold’em, Ryan Leng, winner of event #23 is in the chip lead. 2,342 players entered the tournament and the 148 remaining will battle for a nice $610k payday.

After making his first WSOP cash in the $500 event #4, Dalibor Dula made it all the way to grab the $1,000 event #26 bracelet.
