The poker communities of Nevada, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Michigan had an exciting two months of online poker packed with opportunities to win WSOP bracelets for the second time in 2023.
WSOP.com gave the combined player pool of Nevada and New Jersey a chance to win 33 gold WSOP bracelets in the latter half of September and the former half of October.
Since the player pool on its Michigan and Pennsylvania platforms was small, the WSOP could host only one bracelet event in each state. However, the $150,000 Mystery Bounty Championship attracted a significant turnout.
In Michigan, the player pool comprised 113 unique players, 18 of whom finished in the cash. Player “stazy007” won $56,135 and the WSOP gold bracelet.
In Pennsylvania, the event attracted 128 unique players, 24 of whom finished in the cash. Player “CaptainLevi” won the bracelet and $31,470 in cash.
Top poker players worldwide participated in the WSOP event in New Jersey and Nevada. Shannon Shorr won two WSOP gold bracelets after finishing in the cash 140 times. He won nearly $90k in the $2k NLH 6-Max and over $35k in the $1k NLH Freezeout.
Over 12,260 players participated in the WSOP.com event, which awarded $8,669,056 in cash prizes.
