Super High Roller Bowl Champions
The last Super High Roller Bowl Series took place in September 2023. Isaac Haxton took down the $300K buy-in event before finishing as the runner-up to Jared Bleznick in the same series' PLO tournament.
Haxton became the third player to notch a second SHRB win. Justin Bonomo was the first player to pull off the double, with Timothy Adams being the second. Bonomo then became the only player to have three SHRB wins after taking down the Online edition during the pandemic.
Brian Rast was the inaugural SHRB winner, and his $7,525,000 first-place prize remains the biggest payout awarded in the event's history.
