2024 WSOP Online: Watson Becomes Poker's 10th Triple Crown Winner; Prociak Claims Third Bracelet
The World Series of Poker has released the names of the latest online bracelet event winners, with some big names coming out on top and adding WSOP bracelets to their names.
This brings the total number of online bracelets awarded so far to 20, with only 10 more remaining. These include five live-online hybrids, the final tables of which take place on July 14, 15 and 17.
Stay tuned to PokerNews as we bring you all the updates from the 2024 World Series of Poker.
After 15 Years, Watson Claims Poker's Triple Crown
In 2008, Mike Watson won $1,673,770 in the WPT Bellagio Cup. Two live EPT Main Event titles came, at the 2016 PCA and 2023 EPT Monte Carlo. But the bracelet still eluded him.
Since that WPT win, Watson has six runner-up spots in WSOP bracelet events, most recently in 2023 when he finished second in Event #60: $1,600 No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw for $93,495.
Well Watson now has his first bracelet after winning the $1,000 6-Max Online Championship for $138,327.
"It feels good to finally get the monkey off the back and get a bracelet on the resume," Watson told PokerNews.
"[Winning a Triple Crown] is a cool accomplishment. I think three of those plus a Triton [title] is probably a little bit more special, so it's definitely a nice thing to have on the resume."
