Bambrick Chases Another Gold in $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship
Event #41: $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship had a modest but star-studded field of 118 players that generated a total prize pool of $1,097,400. Only nine players remain, but it seems something special has occurred in the chase for the $282,455 first-place prize and the gold.
Ryan Bambrick (1,465,000) won his second bracelet in the $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship ($470.437) earlier this summer at the 2025 World Series of Poker at Paris and Horseshoe Las Vegas. He may be feeling some déjà vu, as the last time he was in this spot, Viktor Blom (1,875,000) also bagged the chip lead and Daniel Negreanu (420,000) was also in contention.
With a combined 19 bracelet wins at the final table, Blom, David Lieberman (475,000) and Max Hoffman (575,00) are the only players who have never hoisted poker's most prestigious prize. No doubt they'll be trying their hardest to win their maiden bracelet.
