John Hennigan became only the ninth player to reach seven bracelets last night in the $1,500 Dealer’s Choice event. 

He overcame a tough final table that included Viktor Blom and Shaun Deeb to capture his first bracelet since 2019 for $138,296. 

530 players entered the event in yet another impressive early field since the start of the 2024 World Series of Poker. 

“Very happy to win the tournament. I mean to me, the best thing about winning the tournament is not losing it. Not getting second, or knowing they’re still playing and wandering around after you go broke. It’s just very satisfying to come out on top,” he commented after the win.
