Six more World Series of Poker bracelets went out at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, with the latest run covering no-limit holdem, limit holdem, H.O.R.S.E., and two Omaha eight-or-better formats.
Good to know
- Yuri Dzivielevski took the largest prize in the group, earning $2,841,432 in the $100,000 High Roller No-Limit Holdem.
- Nick Schulman won bracelet number eight in Event #37, the $1,500 H.O.R.S.E., after beating 780 entries.
- Nathan Gamble now has three WSOP bracelets, and all three came in Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better.
Event #36 $100,000 High Roller No-Limit Holdem – Yuri Dzivielevski
Yuri Dzivielevski had already done more than any Brazilian player at the WSOP bracelet table. He still found another level in Event #36, the $100,000 High Roller No-Limit Holdem, beating 115 entries for $2,841,432 and bracelet number six.
The 34-year-old became only the 27th player in poker history to reach six WSOP bracelets. It also gave him his first no-limit holdem bracelet after past wins in mixed Omaha eight-or-better and stud eight-or-better, online PLO, H.O.R.S.E., PLO championship, and nine-game.
“It’s unbelievable,” Dzivielevski said. “I don’t have words to explain.”
“I’m just super, super thankful to God, who gave me the opportunity to be here, who gave me this job that I love so much, and gave me a good heart and is transforming my heart every day. It’s super emotional.”
The event built an $11,040,000 prize pool and paid 18 players. Artur Martirosian bubbled after pocket aces lost twice, while Brandon Wilson, Justin Saliba, Cary Katz, Danny Tang, Sean Winter, and Chris Hunichen cashed before the final table.
At the final table, Dzivielevski gathered speed late. He knocked out Sam Soverel, Alex Foxen, Christopher Nguyen, Alexandros Theologis, and Alex Kulev before reaching heads-up play against Teun Mulder. Mulder led early, but Dzivielevski doubled with jack-ten against deuces, caught a river bluff, then won the bracelet when pocket nines held against ace-nine.

Event #33 $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 Or Better Championship – Nathan Gamble
Nathan Gamble made one poker variant feel like home again. The Texas native won Event #33, the $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship, beating 390 entries for $767,395.
All three Gamble WSOP bracelets now came in PLO8. The win also lifted his career tournament earnings above $1.6 million, with most of that total coming from WSOP events.
“I can’t even put it into words right now,” Gamble said just moments after his win. “I was looking at last night, and I was fairly sure I was the number one player in the world for PLO8 bracelet cashes, and now I know unequivocally that I’m number one in the world for PLO8 bracelets. That’s a legacy moment that cements me in the lore of history for poker.”
“That is something I’ve dreamed about since being a 12-year-old kid, watching Negreanu and Ivey and everyone who’s come before,” Gamble added.
The $3,627,000 prize pool paid 59 players. John Hennigan, Phil Hellmuth, Brad Owen, Jason Daly, Mike Gorodinsky, Joao Vieira, Dylan Weisman, Jason Mercier, Matthew Schreiber, Jarod Minghini, and Marco Johnson all ran deep.
Justin Liberto started the final day far ahead, with Gamble second. Martin Zamani and Nino Pansier left before the final three, then Matthew Beinner fell to Liberto. Gamble turned the match after winning major pots against Liberto, including a scoop with the nut low and a flush. On the final hand, Liberto had aces and a nut flush draw, but Gamble flopped top two pair and held for the full pot.

Event #32 $3,000 No-Limit Holdem – Omar Zazay
Omar Zazay turned one rough Bellande final table into a first WSOP bracelet. Zazay won Event #32, the $3,000 No-Limit Holdem, for $538,158 after beating 1,300 entries and taking the biggest share of a $3,471,000 prize pool.
Jean-Robert Bellande entered the final day in front and looked ready for bracelet number two. He removed Troy Donaldson early, then sent Guofeng Wang out in fifth. Momentum then flipped hard.
Zazay doubled through Bellande with ace-three against pocket jacks. Bellande later lost several all-in spots after holding stronger pairs, including aces against Zazay pocket jacks. Christos Argyriadis also looked ready to double late with jacks against Zazay bottom pair, but a river three changed everything. Bellande still reached heads-up, yet Zazay finished it with ace-deuce against jack-ten.

Event #38 $10,000 Limit Holdem Championship – Dong Chen
Dong Chen had only played one other dedicated limit holdem tournament before Event #38, the $10,000 Limit Holdem Championship. That did not stop him from beating a tough 121-entry field for $285,200 and his second WSOP bracelet.
“Poker-wise, this wasn’t my first rodeo,” Chen said. “I’ve battled with legends in no-limit hold’em. But limit hold’em is something new that I just recently unlocked, so it feels really good.”
The final table had Benny Glaser, Jeremy Ausmus, Jesse Lonis, Gus Hansen, Jerry Wong, and Dylan Smith. Daniel Negreanu, Phil Ivey, and Josh Arieh also cashed but missed the last table.
Glaser chased bracelet number nine and controlled big stretches. Chen fell short at one stage, recovered, and then took over late. Smith, Hansen, Wong, and Lonis exited first. Ausmus went in third when Chen turned a diamond flush. Heads-up, Chen pulled clear after making a full house against Glaser, then sealed the title with a river flush after Glaser had improved to two pair on the turn.

Event #37 $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. – Nick Schulman
Nick Schulman added bracelet number eight in Event #37, the $1,500 H.O.R.S.E., beating 780 entries for $183,366. The win came after his 2025 Poker Hall of Fame induction and continued a strong mixed-game run across recent WSOP summers.
The event had a $1,035,450 prize pool. Schulman started the final table in front, lost the lead during a long mixed-game battle, then regained control while the limits climbed.
Jonathan Nebbout and Clayton Mozdzen both led at points, but Schulman removed Mike Wattel, Joe Brindle, and Nebbout to reach heads-up. Mozdzen doubled more than once, including with a wheel in Omaha Hi-Lo, but Schulman kept the lead. The final hand came in Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo, where Mozdzen started with rolled-up deuces before Schulman made a flush on seventh street.

Event #30 $1,500 Limit Holdem – Dennis Weiss
Dennis Weiss already had two WSOP bracelets from pot-limit Omaha. Event #30, the $1,500 Limit Holdem, showed he can cross into another format and still close.
Weiss beat 510 entries for $133,704. He started the official final table last in chips and then dropped to six big blinds after losing a flush-over-flush pot to Jorge Ufano. From there, he rebuilt through small limit holdem edges and well-timed doubles.
Weiss doubled with aces, removed Vo Ngo, then sent Patrick Leonard and Ufano out. Ronnie Bardah, a past WSOP limit holdem champion, fell in third after Weiss hit quads against pocket nines. Omar Mehmood battled heads-up, but Weiss ended the event when nine-eight made two pair against ace-seven.
