Event #67: MAIN EVENT No-Limit Hold’em World Championship<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Koray Aldemir<\/strong> is, without much surprise on paper, our 2021 Main Event champion! That said, he had to battle against hard George Holmes<\/strong> (2nd, $4,3M) who even took the chip lead at some point during the heads-up and played brilliantly all day. Jack Oliver<\/strong> from England took the 3rd place for $3M.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I was pretty stressed to be honest,” Aldemir said about losing the chip lead. “After 10 days of poker, especially the last five or six days were all super stressful. Not a lot of sleep, like five hours a day. All those people watching me play. It’s not easy. Respect to all the other players too who all played great. Crazy experience.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Koray Aldemir<\/strong> won his first bracelet and now sits in 67th place in the all time money list with $20M, passing fellow German players of the likes of Dominik Nitsche<\/strong> and Ole Schemion<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Event #75: Freezeout No-Limit Holdem<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the $1,500 event #75, Chad Himmelspach<\/strong> won his first first bracelet and a lovely $270,877 prize generated by 1,191 players. He ended up taking the win after a roller-coaster three hours heads-up battle against Germany’s Stefan Reiser<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It was a really back and forth heads-up match, but, you know, we came through and had to stick it out. It’s just a mindset,” he said. “You’re never really out of it. You always have a chance, you know. A chip and a chair. And you’ve just got to battle. It’s a battle, you’ve got to battle it out and you can’t give up.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Event #77: FIFTY STACK No-Limit Hold’em<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Paulo Joanello<\/strong> topped a field of 1,501 players to grab his first WSOP gold bracelet in the $1,500 event and earn $321,917. Joanello best live cash until then was $3,676 in Event #75 this year, so the win is quite the big deal for the player.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Today, I ran good. It feels awesome”, Joanello declared after his victory. It’s a dream, a dream come true. I have no voice left because I was yelling, but it’s a dream for all of us.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
