Phil Hellmuth wins his 16th WSOP bracelet while Ryan Stoker wins the latest WSOP Online bracelet. In ongoing action, multiple bracelet winners Ryan Leng and Eli Elezra look to add to their bracelet totals.
Check out the latest happenings at the 2021 World Series of Poker, as we take a look at the latest bracelet winners and look ahead to who could be the next WSOP champions.
He’s done it — Phil Hellmuth has finally secured his 16th bracelet after reaching four final tables this year. His latest victory comes in the $1,500 No Limit 2-7 Loweball Draw, where he outlasted a field of 272 entries over three days including Jake Schwartz ($52,502) heads-up, Chris Vitch ($36,387), Rep Porter ($25,661), Joshua Faris ($18,421) and Dario Sammartino ($13,463)
In addition to the bracelet, Hellmuth wins the first-place prize of $84,851.
In post-match comments, Hellmuth said the 16th bracelet was particularly sweet.
“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. I’ve been fighting so hard for this bracelet for so long, and my game has gotten better and better. I’ve worked really hard at it and I know all these tricks because I’ve been playing since the eighties. It feels really good.”

I skip @WSOP Bracelet ceremonies because I do not need more Ego and more attention: I NEED to keep my head down and stay focused. But, in 2018 Ty Stewart told me that I need to do one for my fans. So, my 16th bracelet ceremony is today at 3:30 in Brasilia Room (Rio) #POSITIVITY

I have repeatedly tweeted to people that the first time people register online, they need to go to FasTrac Verification to verify their payment method and get their first seat assignment. Also https://t.co/clOx2J7tIH and https://t.co/J6MHlj2Wn2
