Notables in the Main Event
Two WSOP bracelet-winners are in action on Day 1b of the Aussie Millions Main Event.
In 2016, Martin Kozlov won the $10,000 Six-Max NL ChampionshipMartin Kozlov at a final table featuring both Justin Bonomo and Chris "Jesus" Ferguson.
Kozlov eventually defeated Davidi Kitai heads-up to take home $665,709.
Meanwhile, Tristan Wade won his bracelet outside of Vegas, taking down the €3,200 Shootout at the 2011 WSOP Europe in Cannes.
His final table featured strong opposition in the shape of Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier, Mike Watson and Steve O'Dwyer. Nevertheless, Wade emerged triumphant for €182,048.
"Everyone who made the final table was an accomplished poker player in their own right," he told PokerNews. "I knew it was going to be a very tough final table.
"The feeling was surreal. It was incredible at the same time. Any MTT poker player loves the rush they get when they outright win a tournament. Now factor in that this tournament was a World Series of Poker event. It's an amazing feeling to conquer a goal I'd had for years."
