Bracelets on Bracelets on Bracelets
Level 21
The final table of Event 32: $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. is stacked with bracelets. Phil Hellmuth and Phil Ivey own the vast majority of them, and of the eight remaining players, only two are without hardware:
| Seat | Player | Bracelets |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Phil Ivey | 8 |
| 2 | Paul Sokoloff | 0 |
| 3 | Matt Waxman | 0 |
| 4 | Abe Mosseri | 1 |
| 5 | David “Bakes” Baker | 1 |
| 6 | Phil Hellmuth | 12 |
| 7 | John Monnette | 2 |
| 8 | Dan Kelly | 1 |
If Hellmuth or Monnette are fortunate enough to win, then they’ll become the first multiple-bracelet winner of 2012. Last year, only Brian Rast won more than one bracelet, and in 2010, only Frank Kassela was able to capture two. Solokoff and Waxman would be ecstatic if they were able to capture their first WSOP gold bracelet, while Mosseri, Baker, and Kelly are all looking for their second career WSOP win.
Of course, all eyes will be on Ivey and Hellmuth – Ivey has predicted that he’ll win 30 career bracelets, Hellmuth has set is goal at 24.
