Michael Tureniec has won the final World Series of Poker bracelet handed out this summer after topping a field of 4,360 entrants in the $1,111 No-Limit Hold’em Little One for ONE DROP.
Michael Tureniec is the winner of the $1,111 Little One for ONE DROP. The Swede defeated the World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner, Calvin Anderson, in a tough heads-up encounter to earn his first bracelet and the third largest prize of his career.
When Tureniec won his European Poker Tour (EPT) Main Event title in 2011, he was one of the most talked about Europeans in live tournament poker, so it’s surprising that his appearance at the final table of the Little One for ONE DROP was the first of his career.
The event was unlimited re-entry with three starting flights. 4,360 entrants created a $3,924,000 kitty, raising $1,206,478 for the ONE DROP charity, and when the action was five-handed Anderson held over half of the chips in play.
