Enter Waxman

The recently vacated seat of Athanasios Polychronopoulos was filled by another tough player in Matt Waxman, and the list of accomplishments Waxman has under his belt is staggering to look at.

Waxman earned a WSOP Gold Bracelet in 2013 after taking down Event #7: $1,000 No Limit Hold'em for $305,952. He also owns a WSOP Circuit Ring, but perhaps more impressive are his pair of WPT titles, including a victory in one of the toughest fields in poker, the Season XVI WPT Tournament of Champions in 2018 for $463,375.

Waxman will be looking for more titles to add to his trophy case, and the Florida native has plenty of time to build a stack before the day concludes at around 6 p.m. EST.
