WSOP review: Wins for Divine and ’Who Wants to be a Millionaire’ star

Another two bracelets to hand out including one for a man who qualified for $60 playing online, and another who created a bankroll by winning the hit TV show Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

When the World Series of Poker (WSOP) scriptwriters gathered around that big oak table, I imagine the story of the guy who owned a shoe store, qualifying for a bracelet event via a $60 online satellite on WSOP.com, and then winning the thing was high on their list of specs.

Rulah Divine might not own a shoe shop, but he does own a WSOP bracelet, after qualifying for Event #63: $1,000 No-Limit Hold’em for $60 playing online at WSOP.com.

Divine’s victory means there will be a few more presents tucked under the Christmas Tree for his twins this December. $262,501 provides the security blanket needed to care for two such tiny foals.
