This Weekend in WSOP History: Two Memorable Bracelets and a Wild Day 1c
While every bracelet that's been awarded over the years meant something to some of the people involved, a few truly stand out as the most memorable wins of all time. While most of those likely involve the WSOP Main Event, the never-before-seen spectacle of a $1 million tournament certainly conjures unique memories, and Antonio Esfandiari's win on July 3, 2012 stands the test of time as a landmark poker moment.
But it wasn't the only big happening over the course of poker history on the dates of July 3-5.
Poker legend Erik Seidel won his eighth, and to date, final bracelet.
Furthermore, a Day 1c of the Main Event, which would typically not involve much excitement at all due to the majority of players advancing on to Day 2, proved to be more wild than anyone could have imagined.
