In today’s World Series of Poker review, John Hennigan wins his fourth bracelet, Steve Wolansky wins his second, and Loren Klein and Ankush Mandavia win their first.
John Hennigan and Michael Gathy could not have had more contrasting times at the 47th Annual World Series of Poker (WSOP). The American came into the series as one of the best card for card players in the world, but going into Event #47: $10,000 2-7 Triple Draw Lowball (Limit) Championship he was still searching for his first cash.
In contrast, Gathy was blasting people into the stratosphere with some magical poker. The Belgian had cashed three times, finished runner-up to Rep Porter in the $1,500 Seven Card Razz, and won his third career bracelet after beating Adrien Allain in the $5,000 No-Limit Hold’em Six-Handed competition.
So when the pair clashed heads-up for the bracelet in Event #47, it was a tough one to call. Would the experience of Hennigan be enough to win his fourth bracelet, or would that fourth bracelet go to the man on a roll?
