Nick Rigby is no longer just the "Dirty Diaper" guy. He's a skilled poker player who won two RunGood Poker Series (RGPS) rings in the same day on Thursday, an accomplishment he pulled off just two months ago.
The Pittsburgh poker player, a fan favorite on World Series of Poker (WSOP) livestreams, has been on a heater this year. Rigby now has eight RGPS rings in 2026, and he almost won another one on Tuesday at the RGPS Harrah's Pompano Beach Passport series but took a bad beat to lose a heads-up battle.

Rigby won three RGPS rings in a 24-hour period back in March, and he nearly added another three in a 48-hour span this week in Florida. He had to settle for second place in one of those tournaments, but took down the other two, both in the same day.
The first event he captured on Thursday was the $400 PokerNews PowerStack, a no-limit hold'em tournament with 96 entrants and a $50,000 prize pool. Rigby, who beat Nancy Birnbaum heads-up for the title, was the biggest winner at $14,743.
That wasn't enough winning for Mr. Dirty Diaper, who entered the $300 One-Day NLH Ring Event after taking down the PokerNews tournament. Once again, the player who made deuce-three a famous poker hand during a deep run at the 2021 WSOP Main Event won the ring for another $3,512.
Rigby now has 10 RGPS rings to go along with a WSOP Circuit ring he won online in 2024. He now has over $200,000 in live tournament cashes this year and competed in the $25,000 buy-in National Heads-Up Poker Championship at PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas recently, a tournament that will air later this year on Peacock.
Rigby, who plans to play a number of bracelet events this summer, could be a sleeper pick in the upcoming 25k WSOP Fantasy Draft, which takes place May 25, one day prior to the start of the 2026 WSOP in Las Vegas.
