O’Hara, Boulton, And Suzuki Latest Bracelet Winners at World Series of Poker

The 2025 World Series of Poker is just days away from wrapping up. While much of the attention is rightly on the main event, which set its final table in the early-morning hours of Monday, July 14, there are several bracelet events coming to a conclusion down the stretch as well. Three bracelets were awarded on Sunday, July 13 alone. Below is a look at the results from those events.

The WSOP mid-stakes championship saw 3,797 entries made at $3,000 a pop, resulting in a prize pool worth more than $10.1 million. While 570 players ultimately made the money, only one walked away with a seven-figure payout and the gold bracelet: Ian O’Hara. This was the fifth WSOP final-table finish for O’Hara, who came close to winning his first bracelet in 2021 when he finished as the runner-up in the $10,000 stud eight-or-better championship. He also placed third in the 2019 $3,000 limit hold’em six-max event.

Now, as the last player standing in this event, he finally secured the hardware and the career-best score of $1,189,408. This victory takes his career earnings to more than $6.1 million.

There were plenty of notables to contend with down the stretch for O’Hara, including Osmin ‘Oddie’ Dardon (19th), livestream cash game regular Eshaan ‘Brown Balla’ Bhalla (10th), 2023 Eureka Poker Tour Cyprus main event winner Ankit Ahuja (9th), reigning Irish Poker Open champion Simon Wilson (6th), and bracelet winner Jacopo Achille (3rd).

O’Hara also earned 1,980 Card Player Player of the Year points, enough to move him within reach of the top 100 in the 2025 POY standings presented by Coin Poker.

The $1,979 Poker Hall of Fame no-limit hold’em bounty event first appeared at the 2021 WSOP. The unusual price point was chosen as a nod to the year the Hall of Fame was established, with bounties placed on members corresponding to the year that they were inducted. For example, 2025 inductee Nick Schulman would be worth $2,025 to whoever eliminated him from the event.

The event drew 1,115 total entries. Tom McEvoy was the last Hall of Famer standing. The 2013 inductee and 1983 WSOP main event winner finished 81st.

More than $1.9 million in prize money was awarded in this event, with the largest share going to Josh Boulton in the end. The UK resident earned $311,349 and his first bracelet after overcoming bracelet winner and Mid-States Poker Tour Hall of Famer Rob Wazwaz heads-up.

This was the largest score yet for Boulton, who now boasts more than $920,000 in lifetime cashes after this triumph.

Several big names made it down to the final few tables, including bracelet winner Ankush Mandavia (16th), three-time bracelet winner Artur Martirosian (15th), and ‘Mad Men’ and ‘Mom’ actress Beth Hall (14th), who is a WSOP Circuit ring winner.

The inaugural WSOP $3,000 T.O.R.S.E. event subs in triple draw deuce-to-seven lowball for limit hold’em from one of the most widely spread mixed-game formats: H.O.R.S.E. The debut running of this particular format drew 522 entries, resulting in a prize pool of $1,393,740.

Japan’s Ryutaro Suzuki emerged victorious in the end, securing his second bracelet and the top prize of $273,386. This was a new top score of Suzuki, topping the $221,124 he took home as the champion of the 2023 WSOP $3,000 nine-game mix.

The 25-year-old overcame bracelet winner, European Poker Tour champion , and 2023 WSOP main event seventh-place finisher Toby Lewis heads-up.

Six-time bracelet winner Josh Arieh (20th), five-time bracelet winner John Monnette (18th), bracelet winner Brad Jansen (15th), two-time bracelet winner James Obst (14th), two-time bracelet winner Ryan Miller (10th), and bracelet winner Nikolay Fal (9th) all ran deep, as well.
