Rosengarten, Prociak Co-Lead $3,000 T.O.R.S.E. as Bracelet-Laden Field Returns for Day 2

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Dan O'Hair

Last night, the inaugural $3,000 T.O.R.S.E. event debuted for those craving more mixed-game action — minus the often-maligned game of Limit Hold'em. Despite the 2025 World Series of Poker ending in less than one week, the event still drew an impressive 522 entrants eager to participate in the last non-high roller mixed-game event of the summer.

Following 12 Levels of play, 159 players remain and will return to the Horseshoe Convention Center today at 1 p.m. for Day 2. Co-leading the field with 355,500 each are Robert Rosengarten and David Prociak. However, their chip lead is far from secure, as several players will be within striking distance from the get-go, including Ryan Hughes (337,000), Nick Guagenti (334,000), Nicolas Milgrom (330,5000), and John Monnette (308,000) — all of whom trail by fewer than five big bets.

Top Ten Chip Counts

Rank	Player	Country	Chip Count	Big Bets
1	Robert Rosengarten	United States	355,500	36
1	David Prociak	United States	355,500	36
3	Ryan Hughes	United States	337,000	34
4	Nick Guagenti	United States	334,000	33
5	Nicolas Milgrom	France	330,500	33
6	John Monnette	United States	308,000	31
7	Ryan Miller	United States	297,000	30
8	David Williams	United States	290,000	29
9	Bryce Yockey	United States	279,500	28
10	Wissam Gahshan	United States	245,000	25

Of the players in the top ten counts, seven have won at least one WSOP bracelet, with several holding multiple bracelets. John Monnette in particular will be seeking his sixth piece of gold, with his most recent coming from a $1,500 2-7 Triple Draw event in 2023.

Other returning notables with big stacks include Ryutaro Suzuki (238,500), Yuri Dzivielevski (238,000), Adam Owen (228,000), David Bach (205,500), Yueqi Zhu (205,000), Kristopher Tong (203,000), Marco Johnson (201,500), Chad Eveslage (196,000), and Todd Brunson (187,000).

A total of 79 players will claim a share of the $1,393,740 prize pool, with at least $6,011 guaranteed for those who make the money. The eventual champion will take home $273,386 for their efforts in addition to the coveted gold bracelet.

Play will resume on Level 13, which features 2,500/5,000 blinds for limit games, a 2,000 bring-in and 5,000 completion for Stud games, and 5,000/10,000 betting limits for all variants. Levels will continue to last 60-minutes each and breaks will be held after every two hours of play. An extended 60-minute dinner break will be held at the end of Level 18 (~7:30 p.m.)

Don't miss a beat! From draws and chops to quarters and scoops — be sure to stick with PokerNews as the inaugural $3,000 T.O.R.S.E. continues onward!

It checked to Amnon Filippi on fourth street, who bet. Jonathan Krela raised, Lucas Johnson called, and Filippi called as well. Krela checked again on fifth street, and this time it was Johnson who bet.

Filippi and Krela both called to sixth street, where Johnson tossed in another bet with four to a straight showing. Filippi called before Krela got out of the way.

Filippi quickly check-called a final bet by Johnson on seventh street. Johnson tabled a seven-straight, and he raked in the pot when Filippi mucked his cards.

Skar drew one and Milgrom drew two on the first draw. MIlgrom then called a bet from Sklar.

On the second draw, both players drew one and action checked through.

Milgrom and Sklar took one off again on the final draw and Sklar then checked to Milgrom, who bet.

"You win," Sklar said as he folded — conceding the pot to Milgrom.
