The 2019 World Series of Poker kicked off May 29 with the $500 Employees Event and the poker circus only left town July 16 with the crowning of Carl Shaw winning Event #89: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em. There were actually 90, and not 89, events this year with Event #90, a $50,000 High Roller added to the schedule when the WSOP was already underway.
Robert Campbell was the only two-time winner this year. He won $144,027 in the $1,500 Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw defeating a field of 467 players, and yesterday added $385,763 and another gold bracelet triumphing over 150 others in the $10,000 Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship .
Ben Heath , Stephen Chidwick , Daniel Strelitz , Isaac Baron , Roman Korenev , Joseph Cheong , Ismael Bojang , Luke Schwartz , and Ari Engel are amongst the familiar names that won their first bracelet.
John Hennigan , Eli Elezra , Scott Clements , Michael Mizrachi , Scott Seiver , Greg Mueller , Anthony Zinno , Nick Schulman , and David "ODB" Baker are just some of the players from a sizable list that added another bracelet to their prize cabinet this summer.

Femi Fashakin had to overcome the biggest field to win his bracelet. He beat a field of 28,371 players to take home $1,147,449 in the BIG 50 , a $500 no-limit hold'em event; the biggest live tournament in the history of the game. Phillip Hui took home a comparably sized $1,099,311, but he "only" had to defeat 73 others to take home the gold. He, however, had to wager $50,000 and take on some of the best players in the world as his bracelet came in the $50,000 Poker Players Championship .
Ten of the winners became instant millionaires. Besides the aformentioned Femi Fashakin and Phillip Hui who hit the magical seven-figure payout, the following players all won more than a million too. Ben Heath won $1,484,085 in the 50th Annual High Roller - $50,000 No-Limit Hold'em, John Gorsuch took home $1,344,930 winning the Millionaire Maker, Stephen Chidwick became $1,618,417 richer triumphing in the $25,000 PLO High Roller, Kainalu McCue-Unciano won $1,008,850 in the Monster Stack, Dash Dudley picked up $1,086,967 and the bracelet in the $10,000 PLO, Hossein Ensan took home the biggest prize winning the Main Event for $10,000,000, Keith Tilston won $2,792,406 in the $100,000 High Roller, and Danny Tang picked up $1,608,406 in the added on $50,000 Final Fifty.
