Congratulations to Bohdan Slyvinskyi, who won his first WSOP Circuit ring this week after victory in the WSOPC Atlantic City Main Event.

The 47-year-old Ukrainian defeated Demetrius Campbell heads-up and topped a 635-player field, winning $177,562 in the process.

According to reporting, Slyvinskyi took the chip lead after a three-way all-in with twelve players left. He led the final seven players ahead of the final day, and eliminated all but one of his remaining opponents to secure victory.

Slyvinskyi is also set to head to WSOP Paradise later this year, receiving a $5,000 Ticket to Paradise package and automatic qualification for the $5M guaranteed WSOP Circuit Championship.

Slyvinskyi Poker Achievements

Up until this tournament, the largest tournament cash of Slyvinskyi's career was $111,740 after a sixth-place finish in the 2024 WSOP Colossus. This summer, he cashed again in the Colossus while also finishing 34th in the $1,500 6-Max.

Earlier this year, he narrowly missed out on his first WSOP Circuit ring with a runner-up finish in the WSOPC Illinois Mini Main, taking home $58,040.

Slyvinskyi has already tasted tournament success in in 2025. In January, he won a $400 PLO Monster Stack event at the MSPT 100 Grand Stack Festival in Milwaukee for $13,696. With four months left in the year, there's still time to make it a hat-trick of victories in the calendar year.
