At the 2026 World Series of Poker at the Horseshoe & Paris Las Vegas, 100 bracelets were up for grabs. Here are the winners, the numbers, and the records.
From May 27 to July 16, 100 events were held in Las Vegas. In addition, there were 30 online tournaments. The numbers are impressive. At the Horseshoe alone, 251,901 entries were recorded, and approximately $467.3 million in prize money and bounties were awarded to the participants.
The prize money for first place alone totals $71.3 million, though the winner of the Main Event won’t be determined until August. $10 million awaits the new World Poker Champion. The poker festival was also a success for the organizers. Nearly $47.3 million was taken in, of which $14.2 million went to the dealers.
While the Main Event bracelet has yet to find a winner, 100 gold bracelets have already been awarded. The title remained in the U.S. 59 times, while Canadians secured seven bracelets.
China, Japan, and the United Kingdom each claimed four WSOP titles. The Brazilians also won four bracelets, though Breno Drumond and Henrique Lessa teamed up to win one of them.
The DACH region claimed two titles. However, several titles were decided by the narrowest of margins, including the $50k High Roller No-Limit Hold’em 8-Handed, where Daniel Rezaei was ultimately defeated in heads-up play.
Calvin Anderson, Eelis Pärssinen, and Naoya Kihara were the three two-time winners of the series. Although they each won only one title, Michael Mizrachi, Benny Glaser, and Shaun Deeb achieved important milestones. The trio each secured their ninth bracelet.
Daniel Negreanu and Nick Schulman each claimed their eighth victory. Phil Hellmuth, on the other hand, narrowly missed breaking the WSOP bracelet record. “The Poker Brat” competed for his 18th victory in the $5k NLH but was defeated in heads-up play.
A complete overview of all WSOP 2026 bracelet winners can be found in the table at the end of the article.
Although there is still no winner in the $10,000 Main Event, the tournament lives up to its name. Even though it ended up being “only” the fourth-largest event of all time, 9,208 entries and a prize pool of over $85.6 million are unmatched.
