The 49th day of the 2023 World Series of Poker at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas was dominated, and rightly so, by the record-breaking Main Event. Poker has a new world champion, and Daniel Weinman is that player.
Weinman defeated Steven Jones heads-up to capture the title, the special Main Event bracelet, and a life-changing $12.1 million. The Main Event deserves a dedicated recap, and you can find that right here.
Frenchman Alexandre Reard denied Stephen Chidwick a second piece of poker gold while helping himself to the second bracelet of his career. Reard came out on top in Event #90: $10,000 6-Handed No-Limit Hold'em, a tournament that required an unscheduled fourth day. Reard reeled in a $1,057,663 score, leaving Chidiwck to bank the $653,688 consolation prize.
