First Dollar Player Selected; 2021 WSOP Main Event Champ Commands a Hefty Price

Koray Aldemir

Former WSOP POY Robert Campbell sold for just $1, the first one-dollar player, to Team Oz, and then Toby Lewis sold for $2 to Team Chingas.

Former WSOP Main Event champ Koray Aldemir, who two years ago was the highest-point performer and helped propel Team Maria Ho to victory, was nominated next. While he sold for $2 the year he crushed, this year teams were onto him and bid accordingly. A series of back-and-forth bids saw the 2021 Main Event champ sell for $75 to Team Kalas joining Philip Sternheimer and Paul Volpe on the roster.

Bryce Yockey sold to The Dinkers for $13, as did Jerry Wong for $30.

Justin Saliba, fresh off a big runner-up score at the Triton Montenegro, was nominated next and went to Team Livingston for $40.
