World Poker Tour (WPT) announcer Tony Dunst stepped out of the broadcast booth and into the online poker arena Sunday night where he picked up a huge victory.

The longtime poker pro captured his third World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet by winning WSOP Online Event #15: $500 No-Limit Hold'em Deepstack. He took home $134,886 and was one of 420 players who cashed in the large field event.

First Bracelet Since 2020

Dunst last won a bracelet in 2020, also online, during COVID. There was no live World Series of Poker that year due to the pandemic. His first WSOP title came in 2016 at the Rio, a $339,254 payday for winning a $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em event, one of his biggest live scores ever.

The now three-time bracelet winner, who resides in Las Vegas and plays under the screen name "Panoramic," earned a min-cash in one other online event this summer. He defeated "vevere" heads up to claim the bracelet. The runner up took home $96,316 as a consolation prize.

On top of his online poker success, Dunst is a longtime popular poker commentator alongside Vince Van Patten. He replaced the late Poker Hall of Famer Mike Sexton as Van Patten's co-commentator in 2017 and has served in that role ever since. Prior to his play-by-play duties, he hosted the edgy "Raw Deal" segment during World Poker Tour televised episodes.

Dunst, a longtime grinder, has also been a successful live tournament player with over $4.2 million in cashes, according to The Hendon Mob.

Winning that first bracelet is always special. And that’s the feeling Ryan Otto must have felt when he conquered the WSOP Online Event #12: $888 Crazy 8’s for $150,916, his first bracelet and largest career score.

Otto, who hails from across the pond in England, beat out Nithin Eapen heads-up to claim the bracelet, but the runner-up still received a six-figure payday ($110,154) for coming extremely close to winning the 1,366-entrant tournament. Daniel Maor was the third place finisher and was paid $80,976 for his deep run.
