In the end, Sam Soverel didn’t just win Event #94: $10,000 No-Limit Hold’em Six-Handed Championship, he dominated it. The high-stakes veteran needed just 19 minutes on an unscheduled Day 4 to eliminate all three of his remaining opponents and capture the $986,337 top prize along with his third gold bracelet.
Soverel came into the final day with a commanding chip lead and never gave his opponents a chance to get comfortable. Klemens Roiter was the first to fall, followed swiftly by Isaac Kempton and Daniel Vicente, who had no answer for Soverel’s relentless pressure and uncanny timing.
The victory capped off a dominant run through a 546-entry field that generated a $5,077,800 prize pool, one of the largest for a six-handed event at the 2025 World Series of Poker. Soverel now adds another major title to his resume, doing it in style with one of the fastest finishes of the summer inside Horseshoe and Paris, Las Vegas.

Running Well at All-Ins
“I ran exceptionally well in all-ins,” Soverel said with a grin. “I feel like I’ve been running hot all summer. Day 2 of this one went well, but I kept losing all-ins toward the end. Then on Day 3, I just started winning the most ridiculous ones. I kept shoving on people with absolute dust, and they’d call with jacks or something, and I’d just drill a queen or king or ace. It’s nice to win every all-in for once.”
Asked about his impact on the 25K Fantasy Draft, Soverel laughed it off. “I don’t have a team and don’t pay attention to that stuff at all. But they did disrespect me and only priced me at $4. I have no idea what that was about.”
Despite the momentum, Soverel isn’t planning to stick around for the rest of the series. “I think this is my last tournament for a while. It’s nice to end it with a win.”
As for what’s next, Soverel is keeping things casual. “I’m kind of retired, so I don’t know about the grind. I pretty much only play local tournaments now when I feel like it. I might go visit my family in Florida and I might play if I'm out there, but no tournaments.”
Speed Run to the Bracelet
Soverel wasted no time dispatching his final three opponents on Day 4. Roiter was the first to fall on the opening hand, after raising most of his stack with pocket sixes. Soverel called with seven-six, and the rest of the chips went in on a flop that gave Soverel a straight, sending Roiter to the payout desk just minutes into the day.
Shortly after, Kempton got his chips in ahead with pocket jacks against Soverel’s ace-four. An ace on the flop continued Soverel’s incredible run of winning all-ins, something he openly acknowledged in his winner’s interview.
Vicente entered heads-up play as a more than five-to-one underdog, and the gap only widened before the final hand. He shoved with nine-seven and Soverel called with jack-ten. A clean runout later, Vicente had to settle for second place while Soverel clinched the bracelet and a near seven-figure payday.
It was an emphatic finish on one of the biggest days of the summer. Today marks the penultimate day of the 2025 WSOP and the start of the Main Event final table. But for Soverel, the job is already done and done in record time.

Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Daniel Vicente shoved for this last 2,150,000 from the button and Sam Soverel asked for a count. The dealer confirmed the amount for Soverel to call.
Daniel Vicente: 9♥7♦ 
Sam Soverel: J♥10♥
The flop came Q♣K♣5♣ to keep Soverel ahead and even pick up the open-ended straight draw.
The turn was the 4♣, which gave Vicente some hope, as they could chop the pot, but the river completed the board with the 4♠ instead, allowing Soverel to win his third bracelet. They shook hands and Vicente made his way out of the tournament area towards the cashier to collect his winnings for finishing in second place.

Some quick hands were played where Sam Soverel increased his chip lead.
He limped in on the button, and Daniel Vicente opted to check. The flop came Q♥6♥10♥, Soverel check-called the 200,000 bet of Vicente. The turn was the 4♣, and Soverel checked again but folded when Vicente continued with a bet of 350,000.
On another hand, Vicente limped in on the button and then called Soverel's 700,000 raise. When the 2♠A♦9♦ came on the flop, he folded to the 350,000 bet of Soverel.
Then Soverel limped in, and Vicente opted to check. They both checked through the 10♦J♦6♠ flop to the 2♥ on the turn. Vicente bet 450,000, and Soverel let go.
Vicente folded a few times to raises and even a shove from Soverel to get down to eleven big blinds.

After losing a few chips being shoved on by Sam Soverel, Isaac Kempton made it 1,400,000 from the button, and Soverel shoved from the big blind. Kempton had around 500,000 behind, and quickly called.
Isaac Kempton: J♠J♣
Sam Soverel: A♣4♥
"That's a good hand," said Soverel to Kempton.
Kempton wasn't ahead for long, though, as the Q♥A♦6♣ flop paired Soverel's ace. No jacks appeared on the 6♥2♠ runout, and Kempton was out in third.

: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
In the first hand dealt, Klemens Roiter made it 700,000 on the button and Sam Soverel called from the big blind.
On the 9♦8♥5♠ flop, Soverel checked, Roiter shoved for 325,000, and Soverel snap-called.
Klemens Roiter: 6♠6♥
Sam Soverel: 7♣6♣
Soverel flopped the nuts, which left Roiter drawing extremely thin. A J♣ on the turn meant only a chop was possible for Roiter, but the 4♥ river wasn't it, leaving him out in fourth.

Sam Soverel enters as the overwhelming chip leader with 22,125,000, more than double the combined stacks of his remaining opponents. It’s been a masterclass performance so far, with Soverel navigating a minefield of crushers, winning key flips, and coolering some of the biggest names in the game. But the job’s not done yet, and only time will tell if he can close it out inside Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
