While the players in the 2023 World Series of Poker Main Event were enjoying a well-deserved day off before the final table commences, there was plenty of side event action going on at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
The day brought three freshly minted bracelet winners, with poker coach Faraz Jaka finally capturing his maiden bracelet to round out an already stellar poker resumé. Jaka, returning from a significant health scare in recent months, won three single table Sit 'n Go's in a row to win the bracelet in a $1,500 Shootout event.
The South American country of Peru is no longer without bracelet winners as its number one player, Diego Ventura, captured gold in Event #86: $1,979 Poker Hall of Fame Bounty NLHE. Ventura claimed a top prize of over $400k along with the coveted wristband.
